Calendar API
The Unified Calendar API enables developers and product managers to access calendar and scheduling data from multiple calendar platforms through a single, standardized interface. Retrieve calendars, events, busy times, scheduling links, and meeting recordings from Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, Office 365, and other major calendar platforms - all with one API.
What is the Unified Calendar API?
Calendar platforms like Google Calendar, Outlook, and Office 365 each have unique APIs with different authentication methods, data models, and endpoints. The Unified Calendar API normalizes these differences, allowing you to build once and support all major calendar platforms without maintaining separate integrations for each provider.
Calendar Data Objects
The Unified Calendar API gives you access to:
- Busy Times: A person's free/busy availability and time blocks
- Calendars: Calendar accounts and calendar information
- Events: Calendar events, meetings, and appointments
- Links: Scheduling links and booking pages
- Recordings: Meeting recordings and transcripts
