Create Google Calendar reminders with Google App Script


I am having a problem finding how to create a Google Calendar Reminder via Google Script. I am not talking about an event reminder, as in a reminder that is emailed or SMS to you before an event on your calendar. What I need, is to create reminders in the google calendar. These reminders are depicted with the finger and string with a bow. Does anyone know the Calendar Service class to use? I assume reminders would be in the Calendar Service, but for some reason, I can't find it.

Here is a link to the reminders I am talking about, they are different from the event reminders you can add to an event.


Solution

  • Not currently possible through GAS, there is no official API for Reminders at the present time. More information (including some third party workarounds) at this similar Stack Overflow question.
