Attach Google Drive files to Calendar events with the Calendar API
Blog post from Google Cloud
Google has enhanced its Calendar API, allowing users to attach Google Drive files to calendar events, thereby increasing the integration and utility of the platform. This new feature, announced by Google software engineer Iskander Akishev, facilitates the inclusion of documents such as meeting notes or booking confirmations directly in calendar events. Users can retrieve file information from Google Drive using the Drive API and then incorporate this data into a calendar event modification via the Calendar API. Once attached, these files are always visible as part of the event details, enhancing the functionality of Google Calendar for both personal and professional use. Additional guidance and support for using these features can be found in the Google Calendar API documentation and on StackOverflow.
