 +====== Enterprise Service Bus Data Handler - Google Calendar ======
  
 +===== Purpose =====
 +
 +The Google Calendar data handler allows the software developer to create an application that creates, updates, and deletes calendars in Google Calendar.
 +
 +//This feature will be available in Platform Version 14.06.950.//​
 +===== Supporting Elements =====
 +
 +For the Google Calendar data handler to work properly there needs to be several elements added to the application. ​ A [[Table|table]] will need to be created by the software developer that the ESB will read from.  The Google Calendar Data Handler will read up to 6 pieces of data that can be saved; Calendar Summary (Title), Calendar Description,​ Time Zone, Location (text), Calendar ID, and  ETag.  The Calendar ID and ETag is required to maintain a sync with Google Calendar and is used to locate and update a the record and detect conflicts when new calendars are created in the WorkXpress application.
 +
 +For an End User to connect to Google and use this ESB they will need to [[Enterprise Service Bus - Google Login|login to Google]].
 +===== Options =====
 +
 +There is two configuration options in this data handler.
 +
 +  * Which User's Google Account should this calendar sync with - Because the records in WorkXpress can be manipulated by many different users of the system and not just the owner of the calendar then it is best to maintain a relationship between the calendar record and the user for whom the calendar is for.  If the software developer can make sure only the owner of a calender can save and edit the Workxpress Calendar record then this setting can be set the "​Currently Logged in User"
 +  * When WorkXpress and Google Calendar Data Conflicts which data should be used? - If a change has occurred in both the WorkXpress application and Google then the version is one system has to take precedence. ​ If Google is selected then the values passed in by Google will be used and a the changes in WorkXpress will be overwritten. ​ If WorkXpress is selected then the data from Google will be ignored and the values from WorkXpress will be pushed up to Google.
 +
 +===== Triggering =====
 +
 +This Data Handler is triggered via an [[Action Type - Enterprise Service Bus|Enterprise Service Bus Action]]. ​ To see which actions will trigger this Data Handler use the "​Outgoing"​ tab on the [[Enterprise Service Bus|Enterprise Service Bus]] page.
 +
 +===== Field Mapping =====
 +
 +The field mapping interface will allow the software developer to choose a field on the table selected in the options above or to use a [[Query Builder|query]] to find a field on related records to the record created by the data handler.
