Google Calendar events do not show up since calendar update

[E3V3A]

@tbanzato Hi! It’s impossible to know what you’re doing. There are dozens of calendar modules out there.

• Which one are you using?
• What is your configuration file?
• What is your hardware?

It says something like the Browser does not support JavaScript and…

• Who says?
• Why do you run curl and not a module or HTML iFrame?
• What is your curl command?

It is a Raspberry pi 3.
The calendar module is the default one.

The Configuration file is bellow

{
                    module: 'calendar',
                    header: 'Calendar',
                    position: 'top_left',
                    config: {
                            calendars: [
                                    {
                                            symbol: 'calendar-check-o',
                                            url: 'https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=83j7tsjdivl1q2mquioftrnqsk%40group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America%2FSao_Paulo'
                                    },

                            ]
                    }
            },

The curl commend answer is “Seu navegador parece não ser compatível com JavaScript, que é necessário para exibir esta página corretamente.” which is in portuguese and the translation is - Your browser

@tbanzato Your URLs look bad. They should look like one of these:

• url: “https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/YOUR_NAME%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics”
• url: "https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/YOUR_NAME%40gmail.com/private-SECRET_CODE/basic.ics

@E3V3A said in Google Calendar events do not show up since calendar update:

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/YOUR_NAME%40gmail.com/private-SECRET_CODE/basic.ics

Thanks a lot for all the help I’ll test it tonight, now I have a question on the private option.
And sorry if this is a stupid one.
Where do I get my private-SECRET_CODE?

Thanks

@tbanzato

Where do I get my private-SECRET_CODE?

I don’t remember, but it’s in the Google calendar settings somewhere, not obvious.

[tbanzato]

Hey the public URL you suggested works just fine
url: “https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/YOUR_NAME%40gmail.com/public/basic.ics”

This is what I did:

1. Logged into Google Calendar
2. Created a new calendar
3. On the newly created calendar I changed the settings to “Make available to public”
4. After that I copied the Calendar ID that looks something like this 83j7tsjdivl123edasul1ndas1k@group.calendar.google.com
5. Changed it into the URL you suggested to look like this https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/83j7tsjdivl123edasul1ndas1k%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics”
6. Changed it into the module settings

Thanks a lot for the help @E3V3A

Now I just need to find the secret private-SECRET_CODE for the private calendar, with this new calendar Google is making sure not to make things easy.

@tbanzato I can partly help with this. The secret code is available in your calendar settings - available either through the upper right gear icon -> Settings ->click on the calendar you wish to use in the left hand menu -> scroll all the way down … Or click on the three dot icon that comes up when you hover over the calendar name -> Settings -> scroll all the way down.

Then just copy and paste the “Secret Address in iCal format” into your config file.

(Note to the future - this is as of 11April18 - gods only know what the Google UI may look like tomorrow !)

And before you get excited, I did exactly that…and it doesn’t work, or at least not yet (still figuring that part out.)
