Google Calendar

Shanone’s Google Calendar integration gives your agent 49 tools covering standard calendar/event management plus higher-level smart-scheduling utilities (free-slot finding, batch event creation, meeting-time suggestions) most integrations don’t offer.

Getting Started

1

Connect via OAuth

Ask your agent to do something with Calendar (e.g. “find a free 30-minute slot with Alex this week”), or connect proactively from Integrations in the Shanone dashboard.
2

Authorize the Google account

Approve Google’s OAuth consent screen for the calendar you want Shanone to act on.
3

Retry your request

Once connected, shanone_execute_tool calls for google_calendar_* tools will succeed.

Common Use Cases

Meeting scheduling

Find a free slot across multiple calendars and create the event with attendees in one step

Daily/weekly briefings

Pull today’s or the upcoming week’s events to summarize a person’s schedule

RSVP management

Respond to invitations or remove an attendee from an event on someone’s behalf

Calendar sharing & governance

Share a calendar with a colleague or audit ACL rules to see who has access

Troubleshooting

Check the sendUpdates behavior in the tool schema with shanone_get_tool_schema — notifications are opt-in per call and default settings can vary by calendar.
Pass all relevant calendar IDs explicitly, or use google_calendar_list_events_from_all_calendars first to confirm which calendars the connected account actually has visibility into.
Push notification channels expire — call google_calendar_stop_channel on the old channel and re-issue a new watch_* call rather than assuming a channel is permanent.
