Hello all,

I'm already familiar with adding events to google calendar through
asp.net and was wondering if someone could give me some info on
updating events. Do I update events the same way as I add them by
posting xml to google or is there some other way? If so do I still post
to the url http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/default/private/full
or do I have to obtain a different url from a query of some kind? There
doesn't seem to be much documentation on this so any help would be
appreciated.

Updating an event is done by doing a HTTP PUT (or HTTP POST with a
header X-HTTP-Method-Override: PUT) to the edit URL of an event. The
edit URL is available from a private authenticated feed as a <link
rel="edit".../> element.

The Calendar Data API is part of the Google data API (GData) family, so
you may wish to see:
http://code.google.com/apis/gdata/protocol.html#Updating-an-entry

If you want more in-depth information, GData uses the Atom Publishing
Protocol (currently an IETF draft), which is documented at:
http://ietfreport.isoc.org/idref/draft-ietf-atompub-protocol/

Of course, if you run into problems, feel free to post questions to the
group!

Cheers,

-Ryan

Can you clarify what the problem is? Assuming you looked at the existing
sample code, doesn't that one translate to VB.NET well enough? Or is it the
translation to ASP that causes the problem?

I am just trying to figure out what kind of samples we need....

So you need an example doing authsub? There is a brand new wiki page,
explaining the general usage, with a short snippet. Let me know if that
helps:
