Sync to google calendar does not work

[Brunobasta]

I just tried the calendar app to sync with google app, but nothing happened.
What did I miss?

It was broken, so it was removed.
#76

Let's keep this open as a reminder that Google calendar syncing is not supported, but is a wanted feature

@SainiAditya1 and any other perspective Haiku GSoC students:
A good place to start would be to read through this page: https://www.haiku-os.org/community/getting-involved/developing
Assuming you haven't run Haiku yet? You should read through this page:
https://www.haiku-os.org/about/faq
I suggest you try running Haiku either in a Virtual Machine or from a USB stick. Play around with it for awhile. Then read through our ideas page again. Calendar was written by a GSoC student a few years ago. At the end of his project I had him make a list of things he felt it still needed and he opened several issues for those ideas. Some have been completed in the years since, but many still remain. Other users have also added their ideas. A decent GSoC project can be made from gathering up a few of these open items and perhaps others. Once you are comfortable using Haiku and have tried out Calendar a bit, you might try solving one or more of the open issues. We ask to see submitted pull requests from prospective students while we are selecting students. We won't know for a few more weeks if Haiku will even be selected, but it can't hurt to get familiar with it until then.
For general Haiku GSoC questions, you should sign up for the Haiku Development Mailing List and post them there. https://www.haiku-os.org/community/ml/
To get introduced to the Haiku API you should try working thru the Programming with Haiku book, it's available free via pdf download on the developing page, under the 3rd party application section.
Besides Calendar there's several other programs on HaikuArchives (/~https://github.com/HaikuArchives) that might make for good GSoC projects. Look for ones that have several open issues and also seem to be popular. Maybe ask on the mailing list. But try out Haiku for awhile to get a feel for things and see if it's something you'd like to work on.

Typically you will find build instructions or a make file in the root directory of each of the programs on HaikuArchives, or look for a readme etc. Calendar's build instructions on in the readme

ok since this is still open:
Google changed to a more secure auth mechanism and sync fails because of an OOB error, which is explained here:
https://developers.google.com/identity/protocols/oauth2/resources/oob-migration

Best would be to use the proper way via Google web API SDK as explained here (there is C++ support and it looks quite straight-forward):
