How do I add my customer's google calendar in Tool?

I’ve integrated Vapi’s API into my application and built a dashboard similar to Vapi’s. Now, I want to connect my customers’ Google Calendars to the tool so they can efficiently organize their event details. how do I do this??

Based on the information I found, to connect your customers' Google Calendars to Vapi Tools, you'll need to create a custom tool that interfaces with Google Calendar API. Here's a general approach:
// Create a custom tool configuration
const calendarTool = {
type: "function",
function: {
name: "getCalendarEvents",
description: "Fetches events from customer's Google Calendar",
parameters: {
type: "object",
properties: {
startDate: { type: "string", format: "date" },
endDate: { type: "string", format: "date" }
},
required: ["startDate"]
}
}
}
// Create a custom tool configuration
const calendarTool = {
type: "function",
function: {
name: "getCalendarEvents",
description: "Fetches events from customer's Google Calendar",
parameters: {
type: "object",
properties: {
startDate: { type: "string", format: "date" },
endDate: { type: "string", format: "date" }
},
required: ["startDate"]
}
}
}
Add this tool to your assistant configuration and implement the server endpoint that handles OAuth authentication with Google Calendar API. Sources: - Vapi Documentation - Discord Discussion

Connect your Google account via the Vapi dashboard under “Provider Keys,” create calendar tools like event creation and availability checking, assign them to your assistant, and optionally use Make.com for automation.

Thank you for your response, and apologies for the delay — we were occupied with other tasks. Here's what we're trying to achieve: We’re using Vapi and need to integrate Google Calendar. Connecting Google Calendar for a single assistant via Vapi is straightforward. However, in our web application, we allow n number of users to create n number of assistants (with Vapi’s API integrated behind the scenes). Each user should be able to connect their own Google Calendar. So, when an assistant needs to check availability or schedule an appointment, it should use the specific Google Calendar of the corresponding user. How can we implement this kind of user-specific calendar integration using Vapi?

Implement OAuth 2.0 in your app to let each user connect their calendar, store their access tokens securely, and set up Vapi assistant tools to call your backend, which uses those tokens to interact with the correct calendar.

Hey @Kings_big💫 sorry to hijack the thread, do you happen to know if this would work for a GHL setup too? (instead of using make or just google calendar) That is, I'd like to have Vapi book the appointment on my Google Calendar and on my GHL calendar (or it can book just on my GHL calendar and GHL books on my Google Calendar). Thank you so much 🙏🏻
