Hello Folks!
I have received an e-mail from Google regarding some upcoming changes in the Google Calendar API v3.
Google wrote:
The Google Calendar API v3 will now include the eventType parameter to subscribe to specific event types when using Events.Watch. Additionally, starting March 11, 2024, the following changes will be introduced:
- Default event type filters alignment for both Events.list and Events.watch.
- Error handling for operations not supported for special event types, such as WorkingLocation, Out of Office, and FocusTime events.
What do you need to do?
To prevent any direct impact in your applications, we strongly encourage you to review your usage of the applications listed below and take the following actions:
-
Events.watch: Specify the event types you need for your application as a parameter to reduce your infrastructure costs. In case you want to request a quota increase, please make sure you have implemented event type filters appropriately. This factor will be considered when we are evaluating quota increase requests.
-
Events.list: Specify the event types you need for your application as a parameter. Without making this change, working location events will start to be returned.
-
Event type: If your code is performing operations on special events, it is important to review it to ensure that your code does not attempt to perform operations not supported for special event types.

I can't recall to have used these features in my Google Calendar integration. But I was wondering if one of the dev team members can make a comment about support for these upcoming changes?
Do we need a new version of TMS VCL Cloud Pack for this upcoming change?
Salut,
Mathias
