You are using a service account. What you need to remember is that a service account is NOT you. Service accounts have their own Google calendar account Primary is its primary calendar.
String calendarId = "primary";
event = getCalendarService().events().insert(calendarId, event).execute();
This is going to add an event to the Service accounts primary Google Calendar which you can not see visually on the web.
Have you tried doing a events.list from your code this should show you the events on the service accounts google calendar.
If you want to be able to see this visually I suggest you create a calendar on your own personal Google Calendar account and grant your service account access to it by sharing it with the service accounts email address.

Hi All after long search from google i found solution .
Steps to create event google event.
Step1: Set following scopes to authorise api.
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.readonly
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar
Step2: While authorizing asks for permission to manage and view calendar , uses has to allow it .
and which will generated authorization code.
Step3: Create access_token by generated authorization code
Step 4: Pass generated access_token to craete google event.
Java code to create google event
public static com.google.api.services.calendar.Calendar getCalendarService() {
GoogleCredential credential = new GoogleCredential().setAccessToken(access_token);
return new Calendar.Builder(HTTP_TRANSPORT, JSON_FACTORY, credential).build();
}
these steps Work for me block room while creating Event using Google calendar api.
i have tried with another way using service account in that case we are able to create event but not able to block room .
