Google Calendar - Integration [Troubleshooting & Solution]

More of a PSA for the configuration of the Google Calender - Integration. I looked at two popular vids on how to achieve the integration and I will say they are still 98% accurate but 2 things to note.

  1. The Minor stuff - The UI has changed a bit, so be mindful of what is being selected and where it is now. The credentials setup especially, it’s all there but trying to follow it 1:1 you will get stuck.
  2. The big one - I received an error when trying to link the account. **As I can apparently only upload 1 image, I grouped it all into one

I double checked, then searched and found some a propose solution. As the app you just created is still in test one needs to deploy it in prod. By the way the UI has change, it’s marked in the image below.

I am sure this work (I didn’t test it), but actually the only thing you need to do is add a test user (see image below). Select add users → fill in your email (I used the one for the email that the app was created in)

Now attempt the verification bit, and everything should work.
