I am trying to patch an existing event with new start and end date using the Google API Explorer
So my event at the moment looks like this
{
"kind": "calendar#event",
"etag": "\"2912997881756000\"",
"id": "3fpkrr85sdfdgsdfsdsdflgn7vk74qhiv2o",
"status": "confirmed",
"htmlLink": "https://www.google.com/calendar/event?eid=M2Zwa3JsdfsdfyODVudWZobGduN3ZrNzRxaGl2Mm8gZHlsbsdfsdfi5pb19xNjUwcWRhcnYyam9vYWYzcTdudmhpc2ZvNEBn",
"created": "2016-02-26T14:32:33.000Z",
"updated": "2016-02-26T15:02:20.878Z",
"summary": "aaaa",
"creator": {
"email": "[email protected]",
"displayName": "name"
},
"organizer": {
"email": "[email protected]",
"displayName": "Display",
"self": true
},
"start": {
"date": "2016-02-26"
},
"end": {
"date": "2016-03-02"
},
"iCalUID": "[email protected]",
"sequence": 2,
"reminders": {
"useDefault": true
}
}
And the request I am making from the Google API Explorer is something like this
PATCH https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/ddfdfdfdfdf%40group.calendar.google.com/events/3fpkrr85nufhlgn7sdfsafdfdsghgffdhvk74qhiv2o?fields=start&key={YOUR_API_KEY}
{
"start": {
"dateTime": "2016-02-16T12:00:00+01:00"
},
"end": {
"dateTime": "2016-02-18T13:00:00+01:00"
}
}
But I always get the following error
{
"error": {
"errors": [
{
"domain": "global",
"reason": "invalid",
"message": "Invalid start time."
}
],
"code": 400,
"message": "Invalid start time."
}
}
I am guessing this is happening because the event is an All Day
event which means start
is a Date
field and I am sending DateTime
but this is exactly what I want to do. Can't I just simply change the type of start
and end
from Date
to DateTime
?
UPDATE
Here is the php code for the path request
$client = $this->container->get('google.calendar.client');
$client->setAccessToken($this->auth()->getIdentity()->getGoogleAccessToken());
$service = new \Google_Service_Calendar($client);
$event = new \Google_Service_Calendar_Event($eventData);
$event = $service->events->patch($this->auth()->getIdentity()->getGoogleCalendarId(), $item->getGoogleId(), $event);
$item->setGoogleId($event->getId());
$this->getItemRepo()->save($item);
There seems to be a problem with leftover dates. Setting dates explicitly to null works:
