  • 3Describe the outcome: watch the specified Google Calendar for event changes relevant to the client context you provide.

  • 5Test with one real calendar and confirm the watch is set up as expected.

Questions about this workflow

Does the watch itself summarize every change?

The action creates a watch for changes to event resources. Do not assume it supplies a summary or a particular notification format beyond what the action returns.

What calendar should be watched?

Specify the calendar that contains the client events and ensure the connected account can access it.
