Calendar API offers several concepts that are primarily useful for
Google Workspace
customers. These customers often have
resources—rooms, projectors, and so forth—that they may wish to
book for specific events. Furthermore, it’s common to build internal apps that
need access to all user calendars in a domain, for example to add corporate
events to them.
Domain resources & rooms
You can book resources and rooms by adding them to events as attendees, using
their email address. When they receive the invitation, they automatically
accept or decline the event based on the availability and access right of the
inviting user.
Accessing domain calendars as an app
An app can access domain-owned calendars without requiring
user credentials if it authenticates using a service
account. The service account must
have the necessary access using domain-wide authority
delegation. In
order to impersonate a user account, specify the email address of the user
account with the setServiceAccountUser method of the GoogleCredential
factory.
