Do you want reminders for specific conferences and events? I can generate a link, when clicked would enter the event in the user's google calendar.

That would be awesome, I think this could be an option for conrad remind. Which would generate that link for the conference the user selected. For example: conrad remind -i conference_id --get-calendar-url, feel free to suggest a better alternative :)

[gunjanraval]

Ok! But the link would have to be opened in a browser to work.

[Sangarshanan]

Hey @gunjanraval can you elaborate more on how the user flow is going to be with the calendar API
I think the flow would involve a one time browser auth and then caching the client for future auth but the user is gonna want to confirm the event every time in the browser

[gunjanraval]

I thought of dynamically creating a link for the addition of an event to the calendar. Example:
https://jennamolby.com/tools/google-calendar-link-generator/ but we would've to fetch the data from the DB for a given conf/event.

[vinayak-mehta]

Yep! I think the event name and start + end date should work?

[gunjanraval]

Yeah! I will start working on this then.
