Synchronising Google Calendar to my application in Android

Question

I have made a GUI application in Android, to which I would like to sync with Google Calendar. How could this be done?

Answer 1

Google has well-documented APIs for its services. You can find the Calendar API here:

You might want to also take a look at OAuth as the authentication mechanism, since most users don't like giving out their passwords to apps. Here's a summary I wrote about OAuth on Android:

Happy hacking!
