I want to add an email address to one of my calendars inside a plugin for wordpress I am building. I am using the following function to do it. The access token is valid, that is not the problem. But I can see that the response to my request is a list of the existing emails in the calendar, instead of a object describing the email I added. And when i check the calendar I can see that the new email was not added. I want to make sure that my jQuery ajax settings are correct. The Google Calendar API doesn't explicitely say how to pass the access token but I saw one example doing it the way I am doing it below. If anyone has used jQuery Ajax to do a Google API request, I would appreciate it if you spot somethiing wrong. Below is the function I am usign to the the ajax request:

function insertACL() {
$.ajax({
  url: 'https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/[email protected]/acl',
  data: {
    access_token: google_access_token,
    role: 'writer',
      scope: {
        type: "user",
        value: "[email protected]"         
      }
  },
  success: function(resp) {
    var user = resp;
    console.log(user);

  },
  dataType: "jsonp"
});

  • Could you specify what you mean by add an email address to one of my calendars? Are you trying to add a user/owner to the calendar (with view/edit permissions), or are you trying to add an email to a specific event? Commented Sep 5, 2017 at 22:53
  • Yes, I want to add user/owner to the calendar so that I can share it with that person. In my code, you can see that this is what I am doing if you look at the " scope: " part of the "data: " section in the ajax call. Commented Sep 5, 2017 at 22:58
  • In that case, I'd recommend this answer, as that covers this topic and comes with some sample code. Commented Sep 5, 2017 at 23:10

  • Thank you but none of the above help. The Jquery Ajax uses a different syntax than the javascript solutions shown there. Would be great to see an example using jQuery Ajax. Commented Sep 5, 2017 at 23:38
