Google Apps Script: Setting color of an event using Calendar API

Question

I would like to set specific colors for events.

I believe I have to use the Calendar API. I cannot figure out how to do this.

The code I am trying is:

Answer 1

This is always possible. Try it out instead.

in your function:

var newEvent = calendar.createEvent(event_title, event_start_time, event_end_time, 
  {
    location: event_location, 
    guests: newGuests, 
    sendInvites: 'true', 
    description: event_description
  }
);

newEvent.setColor('4');

Refer to: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/calendar/event-color

The string to set is the numerical string representation of event color.
