Google Calendar Service
This module allows Drupal sites to create calendars and synchronize events with Google Calendar. It can import events from Google Calendar within a specified range or all at once, and it supports two-way synchronization, meaning events added in Drupal will appear in Google Calendar and vice versa.
Google Calendar Service provides the functionality to create the calendar and sync calendar events in the Drupal system.The calendar events can be imported with specific range time or choosing to import all. This functionality is designed for sites which want to keep and
track all calendars events. The sync work on both directions, an event added to the configured Google Calendar ID on Drupal will be imported to corresponding Google Calendar.
