(Chilkat2-Python) Google Calendar -- Generate Event JSON

See more Google Calendar Examples

Demonstrates how to generate the JSON for an event resource. This code can be used as a template for generating JSON to insert new events.

See https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/events#resource for details about the Calender Event Resource JSON.

Chilkat2 Python Downloads install with pip pip3 install chilkat2 or download... Python Module for Windows, Linux, Alpine Linux, MacOS, Solaris

import chilkat2

# This example (below) generates the following JSON:
# Note: Your application code would construct the event JSON using your
# desired subset of members.  For boolean values, you would pass True or False.
# For date or date/time values, you would pass the appropriately formatted date/time string.
