# Google Calendar

The `robomotion googlecalendar` CLI connects to Google Calendar API for event management. It creates, reads, updates, deletes, and searches events across calendars, with support for attendees, time zones, and calendar listing.

## When to use
- Create, update, or delete calendar events with attendees
- List upcoming events or search by keyword/date range
- Manage multiple calendars — list and select calendars

## Prerequisites
- `robomotion` CLI installed
- Package installed: `robomotion install googlecalendar`
- Google Calendar OAuth2 or Service Account credentials configured via Robomotion vault

## IMPORTANT: Session Mode Required for Multi-Step Operations
Each CLI command runs as a **separate process** — connection IDs from `connect` do NOT persist across calls.
You MUST use `--session` on `connect` and pass `--session-id` to all subsequent commands.

## Workflow
1. Install (once): `robomotion install googlecalendar`
2. Connect with session:
   ```
   robomotion googlecalendar google_calendar_connect --session --output json
   # → {"outClientId":"<client-id>","session_id":"<session-id>"}
   ```
3. Use the returned `client-id` and `session-id` in all subsequent commands:
   ```
   robomotion googlecalendar google_calendar_create_event --client-id "<client-id>" --summary <title> --start <time> --end <time> --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   ```
4. Disconnect when done:
   ```
   robomotion googlecalendar google_calendar_disconnect --client-id "<client-id>" --session-id "<session-id>" --output json
   ```

**Always** append `--output json` to get structured JSON results.
