Can I create a Google calendar for a user in a hosted domain using the admin credentials
- by user351013
I use the admin credentials for all of my interactions with the google api and I can retrieve\create\update\delete events from and for all of my hosted domain users. However, when I go to create a calendar for a hosted domain user, the calendar is created in the admins space. In the example below the GoogleUserName does NOT match the GoogleAccount.
The postUri would look similar to :
http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/[email protected]/owncalendars/full and the GoogleUserName is [email protected]. The api creates a calendar but it is in the admins space.
CalendarService service = new CalendarService("Test");
service.setUserCredentials(GoogleUserName, GooglePassword);
CalendarEntry calendar = new CalendarEntry();
calendar.TimeZone = "America/Chicago";
calendar.Title.Text = Title;
calendar.Summary.Text = Description;
calendar.Color = Color;
calendar.Selected = true;
calendar.Hidden = false;
Uri postUri = new Uri(String.Format("http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/{0}/owncalendars/full", GoogleAccount));
CalendarEntry createdCalendar = (CalendarEntry)service.Insert(postUri, calendar);
The documentation does specify to use the users credentials however the documentation is not specific to hosted domains a great deal of the time and as such I am always attempting trial and error when trying interactions. That I can use all of the CRUD on the user's events themselves using the admin credentials leaves me to believe that it might be possible.
