Place to ask questions about org-gcal?
Hello!
The question I want to ask is: I'm having trouble adding items to my Google calendar. I can fetch events from the calendar to my local schedule.org file just fine, but I can't figure out how to add events to send back to Google Calendar.
Here's the thing: I'm sure that I'm doing something wrong on my end, so this isn't really an issue/bug to report.
Sadly, my Google-fu has failed me. Is there a place to discuss org-gcal, and to ask questions about it?
If someone could post a link to discussion forum(s), Google Group(s), etc where I might ask about this and then please close this issue I would greatly appreciate it!
For me everything is working just fine.
I figured out to nice ways to push an event to Google Calendar
. (I assume the setup is correct, since you are able to fetch events)
I use event and appointment synonymously.
1: Open your schedule.org
and create a new appointment similar to the syntax of an already existing event. You do not need the any of the :PROPERTIES:
since this is generated by Google
.
After creating such an event use M-x
and enter org-gcal-post-at-point
. Then this event will be pushed to the Google Server
. DONE
2: I like this option more. You can make a capture template
for your schedule.org
file. You can find a snippet here: Create new Appointment with org-gcal.
When you submit this capture
in the normal org-capture
procedure with C-c C-c
, org-gcal
somehow hooks into this and recognize that there has been a new appointment added to a org-gcal
file and it automatically pushes it to the Google Server
.
I hope this helps. If you need any more details on a specific step, feel free to ask me anything.
I am really curious about this org-gcal
and open to help.
