Is it possible to add "Other calendar by URL" in google calendar API?

I have been unable to find help on Google Calendar APIreference. I am looking for a resource which makes the same things like option in user interface "Add by URL"( see below).

Is it possible to add other calendars by URL through Google Calendar API?

Solution

  • I dont think this is supported yet. You can read below the "Add by URL" that this is for iCals.

    With respect to DalmTo's suggestion, I tried placing an iCal URL as "id" in the POST request in CalendarList.insert. It didn't work.

    I got an error saying:

    "code": 404,
  "message": "Not Found"

    But, when I added it manually using the Add by URL field, it was inserted. This only means that CalendarList.insert doesn't accept iCal URLs. I also checked the CalendarList resource and no mention of iCal URLs were present.
