Google Calendar
The robomotion googlecalendar CLI connects to Google Calendar API for event management. It creates, reads, updates, deletes, and searches events across calendars, with support for attendees, time zones, and calendar listing.
When to use
- Create, update, or delete calendar events with attendees
- List upcoming events or search by keyword/date range
- Manage multiple calendars — list and select calendars
Prerequisites
robomotion CLI installed
- Package installed:
robomotion install googlecalendar
- Google Calendar OAuth2 or Service Account credentials configured via Robomotion vault
IMPORTANT: Session Mode Required for Multi-Step Operations
Each CLI command runs as a separate process — connection IDs from connect do NOT persist across calls.
You MUST use --session on connect and pass --session-id to all subsequent commands.
Workflow
- Install (once):
robomotion install googlecalendar
- Connect with session:
robomotion googlecalendar google_calendar_connect --session --output json
# → {"outClientId":"<client-id>","session_id":"<session-id>"}
- Use the returned
client-id and session-id in all subsequent commands:
robomotion googlecalendar google_calendar_create_event --client-id "<client-id>" --summary <title> --start <time> --end <time> --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
- Disconnect when done:
robomotion googlecalendar google_calendar_disconnect --client-id "<client-id>" --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
Always append --output json to get structured JSON results.
