PHP Google insert calendar event API

Question

I am using this package: https://github.com/googleapis/google-api-php-client

$google_service = new Google_Service_Calendar($google_client);
$event = new Google_Service_Calendar_Event(array(....));
// Insert Calendar event
$event = $google_service->events->insert($calendarId, $event);
p($event);
$meet_link = $event->conferenceData->entryPoints[0]->uri;

I used to get $meet_link like this from the API but suddenly it started throwing error

trying to get property 'entryPoints' of non-object"

Infact calendar event has been inserted perfectly but I am not getting $event->conferenceData->entryPoints[0]->uri in response. Infact I am not getting this entryPoints object($event->conferenceData->entryPoints)

Answer 1

There seems to be an issue with the conferenceData returned when creating an event with the API.

Answer 2

Finally found the solution. Request part needs to change.

For the PHP API

I passed conference Data in request

$event = [ 
    .......,
    "conferenceData" => [
            "createRequest" => [
                 "conferenceSolutionKey" => [
                    "type" => "hangoutsMeet"
                 ],
                "requestId" => "123"
            ]
    ]
];
$google_service->events->insert($calendarId, $event,['conferenceDataVersion' => 1]);    

and passed 3rd parameter as settings ['conferenceDataVersion' => 1] Then its returning meeting link so its working now.
