Google Calendar

OAuth 2.0 communication

Connect this agent connector to let your agent:

  • Update update — Update an existing event in a connected Google Calendar account
  • List list — List events from a connected Google Calendar account with filtering options
  • Get get — Retrieve a specific calendar event by its ID using optional filtering and list parameters
  • Delete delete — Delete an event from a connected Google Calendar account
  • Create create — Create a new event in a connected Google Calendar account

This connector uses OAuth 2.0. Scalekit acts as the OAuth client: it redirects your user to Google Calendar, obtains an access token, and automatically refreshes it before it expires. Your agent code never handles tokens directly — you only pass a connectionName and a user identifier.

You supply your Google Calendar Connected App credentials (Client ID + Secret) once per environment in the Scalekit dashboard.

Set up the connector

Register your Scalekit environment with the Google Calendar connector so Scalekit handles the authentication flow and token lifecycle for you. The connection name you create will be used to identify and invoke the connection programmatically. Then complete the configuration in your application as follows:

  1. Set up auth redirects

    • In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent AuthCreate Connection. Find Google Calendar and click Create. Click Use your own credentials and copy the redirect URI. It looks like https://<SCALEKIT_ENVIRONMENT_URL>/sso/v1/oauth/<CONNECTION_ID>/callback.

      Copy redirect URI from Scalekit dashboard

    • Navigate to Google Cloud ConsoleAPIs & ServicesCredentials. Select + Create Credentials, then OAuth client ID. Choose Web application from the Application type menu.

      Select Web Application in Google OAuth settings

    • Under Authorized redirect URIs, click + Add URI, paste the redirect URI, and click Create.

      Add authorized redirect URI in Google Cloud Console

  2. Enable the Google Calendar API

    • In Google Cloud Console, go to APIs & ServicesLibrary. Search for “Google Calendar API” and click Enable.
  3. Get client credentials

    • Google provides your Client ID and Client Secret after you create the OAuth client ID in step 1.
  4. Add credentials in Scalekit

    • In Scalekit dashboard, go to Agent AuthConnections and open the connection you created.

    • Enter your credentials:

      Add credentials in Scalekit dashboard

    • Click Save.

Code examples

Connect a user’s Google Calendar account and make API calls on their behalf — Scalekit handles OAuth and token management automatically.

Proxy API Calls

import { ScalekitClient } from '@scalekit-sdk/node';
import 'dotenv/config';
const connectionName = 'googlecalendar'; // get your connection name from connection configurations
const identifier = 'user_123'; // your unique user identifier
// Get your credentials from app.scalekit.com → Developers → Settings → API Credentials
const scalekit = new ScalekitClient(
process.env.SCALEKIT_ENV_URL,
process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_ID,
process.env.SCALEKIT_CLIENT_SECRET
);
const actions = scalekit.actions;
// Authenticate the user
const { link } = await actions.getAuthorizationLink({
connectionName,
identifier,
});
console.log('🔗 Authorize Google Calendar:', link); // present this link to your user for authorization, or click it yourself for testing
process.stdout.write('Press Enter after authorizing...');
await new Promise(r => process.stdin.once('data', r));
// Make a request via Scalekit proxy
const result = await actions.request({
connectionName,
identifier,
path: '/calendar/v3/users/me/calendarList',
method: 'GET',
});
console.log(result);
