I've created a mobile site that displays events retrieved from a Google Calendar. I would like to display a button on each event that allows the user to add the event to their own Google Calendar.
Google Calendar provides a simple way to do this with HTML snippets:
(http://www.google.com/googlecalendar/event_publisher_guide_detail.html)
The url takes parameters so that you can populate the add event form. Here's an example:
https://www.google.com/calendar/render?action=TEMPLATE&text=Brunch+at+Java+Cafe&dates=20060415T180000Z/20060415T190000Z&location=Java+Cafe,+San+Francisco,+CA&details=Try+our+Saturday+brunch+special:%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3EFrench+toast+with+fresh+fruit%3Cbr%3E%3Cbr%3EYum!&trp;=true&sprop;=+website:http://www.javacafebrunches.com&sprop;=name:Jave+Cafe&gsessionid=OK&sf=true&output=xml
Unfortunately I can't find a mobile equivalent of this page. If you go to the page with Android, it asks if you want to use the mobile version, but because there isn't one, it repeatedly displays the dialog until you finally cancel the dialog.
Does anyone know of a mobile version of this page, or suggest another way to do it? (Ideally without AJAX as it's causing some offline caching issues on iPhone in app mode).
I've been doing some research on this myself and I've come close, but I'm not 100% there yet. Here's a sample URL of a mobile "share event" link:
http://www.google.com/calendar/gp#~calendar:view=e&bm=1&action=TEMPLATE&text=Halloween+Party+2011&dates=20111101/20111202&details=Description&location=Millennial+Media&trp=false
It opens up the mobile version of Google Calendar and pre-populates it with details about the event your sharing.
The only problem I've encountered is when you're not already logged into Google Calendar. It takes you to the log in page, which is fine, but then after you log in it takes you to the home screen instead of the event entry page.
If you find or already found an answer to this, let me know.

I have a bot that ultimately returns a hero card to a chat message box. This card has an action button that is currently configured to use openUrl, which spawns a new browser window upon click. We now have a requirement to display the same Url in a collaborative view within Teams (i.e. along-side a chat conversation).
I've seen similar functionality when sharing a document via a chat conversation, but can't seem to find any code samples that take this approach for a Url.
Is something like this possible and if so, any ideas how to best implement this approach?
When you use open URL action it will redirect to browser. This is by Design. But you open open the URL with in the task module when you click on the button, The page need to be publicly available and it should be IFrame. Also you need to add the URL domain to the valid domain, so that you can view the Page inside taskmodule without redirecting to browser. Please check this docs for more info
What I want to build:
I want to build a website where users can connect their google calendars (this will use Google Calendar API's)
and view their calendar events, as well as edit them, and create new ones.
My problem:
In order to do so, google says my app needs to be verified, which can take weeks, and I also need to set up terms of services pages, privacy policy pages
I also need to supply authorised javascript origins which MUST start with https, which of course is a problem during development, since my origin is http://localhost
I also need to set up support emails and homepage link
Question
I just want to start building my application without having to set up a whole production-ready website eco system.
Is there anyway I can use these Google Calendar APIs for editing/creating calendar events locally, without having to set up everything mentioned above first?
Unverified apps can still be used by the developer who created the project on google developer console.
Unverified app screen
The app or script might display an "unverified app" screen before it displays the consent screen. This is based on the specific scopes that your app includes in the request.
You can still work on your app while you are going though the verification process. However that being said i would start that process asap it can take a long time to get verified.
Yes, you can. As far as I am able to tell, all the verification step does is remove the "unverified app" screen. As long as you click Advanced > Go To ... (unsafe), you should be able to create and edit calendar events for that user in your application.
In order to be able to create and edit calendar events, you need to use the most sensitive scope, which is https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar. I couldn't figure out how to edit and create calendar events in my web app until I changed my scope from calendar.events to calendar.

Is there a quick way to delete all our Facebook events in Facebook Analytics?
We have 1000 events and to do it manually will take days.
Bulk deactivate was recently introduced in the product. Go to the Events screen and click the 'Deactivate' button at the top right.
I'm learning iOS programming and I'm at a very basic level.
I hope somebody can help me with a test project I'm trying to do.
In a view of my app I'd like to show a Google Calendar.
The source calendar will always be the same and events will be added via web site, so there's no need for the user to modify or add anything.
The view should just show a list (tableview?) of events fetched from google and touching each event should push another view with the event's details.
I've tried to see the documents for the Google's API, but, honestly, I'm not able to implement it without help.
Can anyone give me some pointers on how to add a calendar event to the Windows Phone 7 calendar (preferably choosing the default calendar for the phone). Also querying it would be helpful too.
Chris, i'm sorry but their is not calendar control in the SDK at this time (as per http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff402549(VS.92).aspx section Unsupported Controls). You gonna have to build one yourself
edit: regarding adding an event in the phone calendar from within you app, this is not possible (yet ?), as per http://fragiledevelopment.wordpress.com/2010/06/10/licking-windows-phone-7/ (part about launcher and choosers)
Since there's no API available maybe you can generate an iCal/ICS event server-side with an url and launching the web browser with this url. Maybe the WP7 will recognize the format and ask to the user if he/she wants to add it to his/her calendar ?
