You are going to have to use OAuth to get authorization, store the token you get for the user, and then use the token to interact with the Google Calendar API.

Google Calendar Implementation
Hi everyone.
I am looking for some guideline or tutorial to implement the latest Google Calendar into Laravel 5.3
I tried to implement all the steps i found here https://github.com/spatie/laravel-google-calendar it`s working but using a static calendar..
How can I make the member use his own calendar.
Thanks for any replies and help!

@ahuggins can you give an example for that, because it always using the calendar ID on config file for me .

It's a lot. It's kind of like this: https://laracasts.com/series/whats-new-in-laravel-5/episodes/9
Except that you will be doing that with Google's services. But the storing the tokens and then using those to make requests will be a little different.

@ahuggins Thanks for your replay, I already understand how to use Socialite to get access with OAuth2 i think it`s getting just the goole+ account , but the problem um facing here is how to connect the email (calendar-Email) to be used with laravel calendar .

What do you mean "connect the email (calendar-Email)"?

Here is an example :
I has to authenticate user to login to the app. user email was " [email protected] " now i want this user to see his events on google calendar . but my google calendar provider um using is only get the default calendar that i specified on config file .. so it`s always using [email protected]
I know um not explaining it right, but Um doing my best here :)

there is a way to specify which calendar of the user's to return via the api. Can't remember what it is off the top of my head, but you can specify it. You might be able to find it here: https://developers.google.com/google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/
