[iOS] cannot add or remove calendars to Google calendar #420

Open arsalalgorepublic opened 2 years ago

arsalalgorepublic commented 2 years ago

I'm not able to create calendar on iPhone 12 pro max using ios version 15.4.1

Error code: 599 Error Message: Device calendar plugin ran into an issue. Platform specific exception [500], with message :"That account does not allow calendars to be added or removed.", has been thrown.

Did anyone face this issue?

Does said account allow calendars to be created or deleted?

We may need more information on the account info side

Actually, the problem is that the user has set his default calender as a google calendar on an IOS device. It works when we set the default calender as an iCloud calender.

It sounds like a problem on Google calendar's setup, if icloud works fine

Yes, It seems like Google Calendar doesn't allow us to read and write on iOS even though I checked on android it's working fine with google calendar as well.

For iOS, the resolution seems to be to always create new calendars in iCloud? Where to create new calendars should be separate to where the default calendar resides.

Exactly I'm creating a new calendar but we have no such option to create a calendar in iCloud . In Ios, it chooses to create a calendar on the default selected calender in my case it is google calender so I ran into an error.

Looking at how other framework did things, it seems that no one can add calendar to specific calendar accounts? Maybe this is another ecosystem lock in https://github.com/EddyVerbruggen/Calendar-PhoneGap-Plugin/blob/81ac2df9d99d23d68b25120654bb792bd8f49e42/src/ios/Calendar.m#L935

On iOS Calendar app make sure Gmail Calendar is connected properly and re-authenticate if not.
