Google Calendar API: add latitude longitude to Calendar Event programmatically in android?

Question

I retrieve the lat & long for the event detail. And I want to send lat long to calendar using intent. I search it on google but didn't find any solution? Please help.

Answer 1

You could attain this using CalendarContract class. Adding location is possible using this class; CalendarContract.Events.EVENT_LOCATION

Answer 2

Using the Google API with other languages, I have been able to pass the Latitude and Longitude as a string and the map link in the Calendar Event drops a pin in the correct position. I would imagine that that API has the same behavior for all languages.

C# psuedo code

var latitude = "38.8976763";
var longitude = "-77.0365298";

new Event
{
   // beginning parameters
   ...

   // The comma is optional and replaceable with a single space
   Location = $"{latitude}, {longitude}", 

   ... 
   // final parameters
}
