How to add calendar events in Android?

Try this in your code: Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance(); Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_EDIT); intent.setType("vnd.android.cursor.item/event"); intent.putExtra("beginTime", cal.getTimeInMillis()); intent.putExtra("allDay", true); intent.putExtra("rrule", "FREQ=YEARLY"); intent.putExtra("endTime", cal.getTimeInMillis()+60*60*1000); intent.putExtra("title", "A Test Event from android app"); startActivity(intent);

As of Android version 4.0 http://android-developers.blogspot.com/2011/10/ics-and-non-public-apis.html to interact with the available http://developer.android.com/reference/android/provider/CalendarContract.html.

Google calendar is the "native" calendar app. As far as I know, all phones come with a version of it installed, and the default SDK provides a version. You might check out this http://www.developer.com/ws/article.php/3850276/Working-with-the-Android-Calendar.htm for working with it.

Try this use this API in your code.. This will help u to insert event, event with reminder and event with meeting can be enabled... This api works for platform 2.1 and above Those who uses less then 2.1 instead of content://com.android.calendar/events use content://calendar/events public static long pushAppointmentsToCalender(Activity curActivity, String title, String addInfo, String place, int status, long startDate, int needReminder, int needMailService) { /***************** Event: note(without alert) *******************/ String eventUriString = "content://com.android.calendar/events"; ContentValues eventValues = new ContentValues(); eventValues.put("calendar_id", 1); // id, We need to choose from // our mobile for primary // its 1 eventValues.put("title", title); eventValues.put("description", addInfo); eventValues.put("eventLocation", place); long endDate = startDate + 1000 * 60 * 60; // For next 1hr eventValues.put("dtstart", startDate); eventValues.put("dtend", endDate); // values.put("allDay", 1); //If it is bithday alarm or such // kind (which should remind me for whole day) 0 for false, 1 // for true eventValues.put("eventStatus", status); // This information is // sufficient for most // entries tentative (0), // confirmed (1) or canceled // (2): eventValues.put("visibility", 3); // visibility to default (0), // confidential (1), private // (2), or public (3): eventValues.put("transparency", 0); // You can control whether // an event consumes time // opaque (0) or transparent // (1). eventValues.put("hasAlarm", 1); // 0 for false, 1 for true Uri eventUri = curActivity.getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().insert(Uri.parse(eventUriString), eventValues); long eventID = Long.parseLong(eventUri.getLastPathSegment()); if (needReminder != -1) { /***************** Event: Reminder(with alert) Adding reminder to event *******************/ String reminderUriString = "content://com.android.calendar/reminders"; ContentValues reminderValues = new ContentValues(); reminderValues.put("event_id", eventID); reminderValues.put("minutes", 5); // Default value of the // system. Minutes is a // integer reminderValues.put("method", 1); // Alert Methods: Default(0), // Alert(1), Email(2), // SMS(3) Uri reminderUri = curActivity.getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().insert(Uri.parse(reminderUriString), reminderValues); } /***************** Event: Meeting(without alert) Adding Attendies to the meeting *******************/ if (needMailService != -1) { String attendeuesesUriString = "content://com.android.calendar/attendees"; /******** * To add multiple attendees need to insert ContentValues multiple * times ***********/ ContentValues attendeesValues = new ContentValues(); attendeesValues.put("event_id", eventID); attendeesValues.put("attendeeName", "xxxxx"); // Attendees name attendeesValues.put("attendeeEmail", "[email protected]");// Attendee // E // mail // id attendeesValues.put("attendeeRelationship", 0); // Relationship_Attendee(1), // Relationship_None(0), // Organizer(2), // Performer(3), // Speaker(4) attendeesValues.put("attendeeType", 0); // None(0), Optional(1), // Required(2), Resource(3) attendeesValues.put("attendeeStatus", 0); // NOne(0), Accepted(1), // Decline(2), // Invited(3), // Tentative(4) Uri attendeuesesUri = curActivity.getApplicationContext().getContentResolver().insert(Uri.parse(attendeuesesUriString), attendeesValues); } return eventID; }
