calendarList

• `delete` — Removes a calendar from the user's calendar list.
• `get` — Returns a calendar from the user's calendar list.

calendars

• `clear` — Clears a primary calendar. This operation deletes all events associated with the primary calendar of an account.
• `delete` — Deletes a secondary calendar. Use calendars.clear for clearing all events on primary calendars.
• `get` — Returns metadata for a calendar.
• `insert` — Creates a secondary calendar.

The authenticated user for the request is made the data owner of the new calendar.

Note: We recommend to authenticate as the intended data owner of the calendar. You can use domain-wide delegation of authority to allow applications to act on behalf of a specific user. Don't use a service account for authentication. If you use a service account for authentication, the service account is the data owner, which can lead to unexpected behavior.

• `patch` — Updates metadata for a calendar. This method supports patch semantics.
• `update` — Updates metadata for a calendar.

channels

• `stop` — Stop watching resources through this channel

colors

• `get` — Returns the color definitions for calendars and events.

events

• `delete` — Deletes an event.
• `get` — Returns an event based on its Google Calendar ID. To retrieve an event using its iCalendar ID, call the events.list method using the iCalUID parameter.
• `import` — Imports an event. This operation is used to add a private copy of an existing event to a calendar. Only events with an eventType of default may be imported.

Deprecated behavior: If a non-default event is imported, its type will be changed to default and any event-type-specific properties it may have will be dropped.

• `insert` — Creates an event.
• `instances` — Returns instances of the specified recurring event.
• `list` — Returns events on the specified calendar.
