Google Locations to Google Calendar Event

Create a daily Event in Google Calendar to quickly link the Locations overview from Google Maps to the specific day.

Code

Based on example code in https://developers.google.com/calendar/quickstart/python.

Steps

1. Create API Key for use, see link.
2. Connect to Google Calendar API, use calendar.events SCOPE for permissions.

• If this is the first time, you have to authorize the app using the browser login flow.
• After the first time, the credentials are pickled and kept in token.pickle, which can be re-used for future API calls.

3. Create a new Event, inserting the link Locations into the event with the current date.

TODO

• Find out how long the token is valid.
