Google Calendar – How to Create a Shared Calendar with Restricted Editing

google-calendar

I want to create a Shared Google Calendar that allows users to add events and edit events they have added. A user should not be able to edit an event added by another user.

Is this possible with Google Calendar?

Can such settings be done at the event level by the event creator?

This is not possible with Google Calendar: sharing settings are rather limited, as you can see below:

As for the event creator you can only choose there the privacy level you want for the event: default/private/public

Google-apps-script – How to delete all events on many dates all at once but not the whole Calendar in Google Calendar

I've been able to do this with a Google Script like this. You can alter this to pinpoint the days you want to delete, etc.

function delete_events()
{
    var fromDate = new Date(2013,0,1,0,0,0); 
    var toDate = new Date(2013,0,4,0,0,0);
    var calendarName = 'My Calendar';

    // delete from Jan 1 to end of Jan 4, 2013 (for month 0 = Jan, 1 = Feb...)

    var calendar = CalendarApp.getCalendarsByName(calendarName)[0];
    var events = calendar.getEvents(fromDate, toDate);
    for(var i=0; i<events.length;i++){
      var ev = events[i];
      Logger.log(ev.getTitle()); // show event name in log
      ev.deleteEvent();
    }
 }

Google-calendar – I can’t set manage rights to outside-domain accounts in Google Calendar (GApps)

It works now. I don't know where the error is but I think that it's important to set Share all information, and outsiders can change calendars in Domain management Calendar settings and then you must wait until the change applies to google servers.
