What I'm trying to do: Add events to a google calendar from my site using javascript.
What I can't do: Find a good tutorial/walk through/example for the google calendar api. All the documentation I've been able to find links back and forth between v1 and v2 api's, or the v3 api doesn't seem to be client based.
For those that are curious, the site I'm developing this for: http://infohost.nmt.edu/~bbean/banweb/index.php
this should do the trick
//async function to handle data fetching
async function getData () {
//try catch block to handle promises and errors
try {
const calendarId = ''
const myKey = ''
//using await and fetch together as two standard ES6 client side features to extract the data
let apiCall = await fetch('https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/' + calendarId+ '/events?key=' + myKey)
//response.json() is a method on the Response object that lets you extract a JSON object from the response
//response.json() returns a promise resolved to a JSON object
let apiResponse = await apiCall.json()
console.log(apiResponse)
} catch (error) {
console.log(error)
}
}
getData()
