Connect Google Calendar to any app

Connecting Google Calendar to APIANT lets your AI client build automations on your events, attendee responses and free time. For example: when an event is created with an external attendee, look them up in HubSpot and send a Slack message with their details before the meeting.

What the catalog holds today. Ask for anything missing and your agent reads the API documentation and adds it.

Build solutions, not workarounds.

What do you want to automate with Google Calendar?

Ask the assistant

You'll sign in before anything runs. What you typed comes with you.

Connect your AI client

Give your AI client this address.

https://mcp.apiant.ai

One connection does both: ask your client to act in an app once, or have it build an automation that keeps running. Any client that takes a remote MCP server. Nothing to install. Create your free account, then sign in once in your browser.

Set it up in your client
Claude Code

Run this in the directory you want to work in.

claude mcp add --transport http -s project apiant-ai https://mcp.apiant.ai

Start Claude Code there, approve the server, and sign in in the browser page it opens.

Codex and the ChatGPT desktop app

Open Settings, then MCP servers, then Add server, and choose Streamable HTTP. From the terminal, Codex takes the address with its own add command and then signs you in.

Setup guide (opens in a new tab)
Any other MCP client

Paste the address where the client asks for a remote MCP server URL, and name the server apiant-ai where it lets you. APIANT's skills reach the client over the same connection.

Setup guide (opens in a new tab)

Ask in plain language and your agent picks the Google Calendar operations, maps the fields both ways, and tests every scenario before the automation runs.

Build from the assistant inside APIANT, or from your own AI client over MCP. Either way the automation lands in the same account, and the free plan covers both.

  • Trigger
    Event Updated

    Triggers when an existing Google Calendar event is modified. Returns the event ID, change type, and the specific fields that changed with their previous and new values.

  • Action
    Acl Delete

    Deletes an access control rule from a Google Calendar. Use when you need to remove sharing permissions for a user, group, or domain.

  • Action
    Acl Get

    Retrieves a specific access control rule for a calendar. Use when you need to check permissions for a specific user, group, or domain.

  • Action
    Acl Insert

    Creates an access control rule for a calendar. Use when you need to grant sharing permissions to a user, group, or domain.

  • Action
    Acl Patch

    Updates an existing access control rule for a calendar using patch semantics (partial update). This allows modifying specific fields without affecting other properties. IMPORTANT: The ACL rule must already exist on the calendar. This action cannot create new rules. If you receive a 404 Not Found error, the rule does not exist - use ACL insert to create it first, or use ACL list to verify available rules. Each patch request consumes three quota units. For domain-type ACL rules, if PATCH fails with 500 error, this action will automatically fallback to UPDATE method.

  • Action
    Acl Update

    Updates an access control rule for the specified calendar.

  • Action
    Acl Watch

    Tool to watch for changes to ACL resources. Use when you need to set up real-time notifications for access control list modifications on a calendar.

  • Action
    Batch Events

    Execute up to 1000 event mutations (create/patch/delete) in one Google Calendar HTTP batch request with per-item status/results. Use this to materially reduce round-trips for bulk operations like migrations, cleanup, or large-scale updates.

  • Action
    Calendar List Insert

    Inserts an existing calendar into the user's calendar list.

Optional parameters include description, location, and timezone.

  • Action
    Create Event

    Creates an event on a google calendar, needing rfc3339 utc start/end times (end after start) and write access to the calendar. by default, adds the organizer as an attendee unless exclude organizer is set to true.

  • Action
    Duplicate Calendar

    Creates a new, empty google calendar with the specified title (summary).

  • Action
    Events Get

    Retrieves a SINGLE event by its unique event_id (REQUIRED). This action does NOT list or search events - it fetches ONE specific event when you already know its ID. If you want to list events within a time range, search for events, or filter by criteria like time_min/time_max, use GOOGLECALENDAR_EVENTS_LIST instead.

  • Action
    Events Import

    Tool to import an event as a private copy to a calendar. Use when you need to add an existing event to a calendar using its iCalUID. Only events with eventType='default' can be imported.

Questions

Google Calendar, answered

Is there a Google Calendar MCP server?

APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Google Calendar. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server, Claude Code included, sign in once in your browser, and your client can build, test and run automations that use Google Calendar's triggers and actions. Nothing to install, and calls over MCP use no assistant credits.

How does Google Calendar authentication work?

Google Calendar connects through a managed sign-in: pick Google Calendar on the Connections page and sign in to your Google account on the vendor's own page. The first time, the dialog may also ask for an API key for the managed sign-in service. Connection credentials are stored encrypted. Details are in the Connections guide at https://apiant.ai/docs/apps/connections.

What can start an automation from Google Calendar?

Any of Google Calendar's 6 triggers in the catalog, including Attendee Response Changed, Event Created, Event Updated and Calendar Event Sync. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one.

What can your agent do in Google Calendar?

Any of Google Calendar's 45 actions, including Create Calendar, Create Event, Update Acl Rule and Update Event. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships.

Can I use Google Calendar directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?

Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with Google Calendar two ways. Ask it to do something in Google Calendar once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does.

Do I need to write code against the Google Calendar API?

No. APIANT connects to the Google Calendar API for you, over a managed connection. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the Google Calendar triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the Google Calendar API documentation and adds it.

Which apps can Google Calendar connect to?

Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Google Calendar with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector.

What happens when something fails?

Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships.

Is there a free plan?

Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
