← Calendar ACL operations · Get started

Operation google.calendar_acl_insert

Provider route: POST /calendar/v3/calendars/{calendarId}/acl. Alter supplies the connection’s credentials and routing.

Install @alter-ai/sdk @alter-ai/google with npm, or alter-sdk-google with pip. Supply your connected customer’s grant ID and the arguments described below.

import { App } from "@alter-ai/sdk";
import { GoogleIntegration } from "@alter-ai/google";
async function execute(input: Parameters<GoogleIntegration["calendarAcl"]["calendarAclInsert"]>[0]) {
const app = new App({ apiKey: process.env.ALTER_API_KEY! });
try {
const provider = new GoogleIntegration(app, { grantId: process.env.PROVIDER_GRANT_ID! });
const call = await provider.calendarAcl.calendarAclInsert(input);
const result = await call.wait();
return result.bodyJson();
} finally {
await app.close();
}
}
import os
from alter_sdk import App
from alter_sdk_google import GoogleIntegration
async def execute(arguments):
async with App(api_key=os.environ["ALTER_API_KEY"]) as app:
provider = GoogleIntegration(app, {"grant_id": os.environ["PROVIDER_GRANT_ID"]})
call = await provider.calendar_acl.calendar_acl_insert(arguments)
result = await call.wait()
return result.body_json()

$objectRoot
etagstringOptionalETag of the resource.
idstringOptionalIdentifier of the Access Control List (ACL) rule. See Sharing calendars.
kindstringOptionalType of the resource ("calendar#aclRule").
Default: calendar#aclRule
rolestringOptionalThe role assigned to the scope. Possible values are:
- "none" - Provides no access.
- "freeBusyReader" - Provides read access to free/busy information.
- "reader" - Provides read access to the calendar. Private events will appear to users with reader access, but event details will be hidden.
- "writerWithoutPrivateAccess" - Provides read and write access to the calendar. Private events will appear to users with writerWithoutPrivateAccess access, but event details will be hidden.
- "writer" - Provides read and write access to the calendar. Private events will appear to users with writer access, and event details will be visible. Provides read access to the calendar's ACLs.
- "owner" - Provides manager access to the calendar. This role has all of the permissions of the writer role with the additional ability to modify access levels of other users.
Important: the owner role is different from the calendar's data owner. A calendar has a single data owner, but can have multiple users with owner role.

- "default" - The public scope. This is the default value.

SDK function policy ID: google.calendar_acl_insert. Catalog operation: calendar.acl.insert. Rules can name either ID; function rules distinguish managed calls and conservatively cover raw calls sharing the route. Existing grant permissions and policy rules apply. wait() returns an immediate result or waits for a required approval; it never approves the request itself. Persist the approval ID to resume after a restart.

Provider errors retain their response; JSON decoding raises ProviderAPIError for provider failures. ManagedOperationError identifies contract/input/retention errors. See error handling and provider-specific behavior. Sensitive input may be refused before approval storage. A decoding error never resubmits a write.

Required provider scopes: ["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar", "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.acls"]
