Connecting Calendly Scheduled Events To Provider Event Id

I’m working on an integration with Calendly and we need to be able to link the Calendly scheduled event to the event in the provider (i.e. Google or MS) as our app also has an integration with our customer’s calendars. What we need is a way to get the provider type and Id for each of the Calendly scheduled events so we can tie them together in our UI. 

 

I see in the APIs documentation for the Event endpoint (https://api.calendly.com/scheduled_events) that it has a property for ‘calendar_event’ but it shows in the API as deprecated  (see: https://developer.calendly.com/api-docs/504508461e486-event ).

 

This field appears to have exactly what we need, but since it’s deprecated, I’m hesitant to use or trust it. Is there a more preferred route to retrieve this data and if not why is this deprecated and how much can we trust it working going forward?

Hey Jon! 

 

Thanks for flagging this. You’re correct that calendar_event contains the kind of provider metadata you’re looking for, and it may still be returned today on scheduled event responses.

 

However, because that field is deprecated, we wouldn’t recommend building a new integration that depends on it as a long-term supported contract.

 

At this time, we do not have a newer public API field or endpoint that provides the same provider event ID in a supported way.

 

From our internal notes, the deprecation appears related to concerns around exposing external calendar IDs from the scheduled events resource, and a replacement approach has been discussed but is not currently available publicly.

 

If this provider mapping is important for your integration, we can absolutely submit a feature request on your behalf so our product team can review the use case.
