Google Calendar API - create event PHP-CodePudding

I want to insert a new event into Google Calendar by using the Google Calendar API. And the problem is that I want to set the event status to "free" or "busy" based on the input datetime data.

How to change the event status to "Free"? When I create a new event, it will automatically set to "Busy". I couldn't figure it out on how to set to "Free" or "Busy".

How I insert a new event by using Google Calendar API.

$googleClient = new GoogleClient();
$slotCalendarService = GoogleClientCalendar::getSlotCalendar($googleClient->getClient());

$googleEvent = new Event();

$googleEventStart = new EventDateTime();
$googleEventStart->setTimeZone($attrs['timezone']);
$googleEventStart->setDateTime("2021-12-02T10:00:00");
$googleEvent->setStart($googleEventStart);

$googleEventEnd = new EventDateTime();
$googleEventEnd->setTimeZone($attrs['timezone']);
$googleEventEnd->setDateTime("2021-12-02T10:50:00");
$googleEvent->setEnd($googleEventEnd);

$googleEventAttendee = new EventAttendee();
$googleEventAttendee->email = empty($attrs['attendee']) ? '' : $attrs['attendee'];
$googleEvent->description = $description;
$googleEvent->summary = $remark;
$googleEvent->setAttendees($googleEventAttendee);
$slotCalendarService->getCalendarService()->events->insert($slotCalendarService->getCurrentCalendarId(), $googleEvent);

Base on the the code above, there is no param to set the event status to "free" or "busy". I also follow the document FreeBusy Google Calendar API and it does not have information on how to set event status to "free" or "busy".

CodePudding user response：

When you want to set to "free", please modify as follows.

From:

$googleEvent->setAttendees($googleEventAttendee);
$slotCalendarService->getCalendarService()->events->insert($slotCalendarService->getCurrentCalendarId(), $googleEvent);

To:

$googleEvent->setAttendees($googleEventAttendee);
$googleEvent->transparency = "transparent"; // Added
$slotCalendarService->getCalendarService()->events->insert($slotCalendarService->getCurrentCalendarId(), $googleEvent);

When you don't use $googleEvent->transparency = "transparent"; or you use $googleEvent->transparency = "opaque";, it's "busy".
