Hi Steven,

Yes, that sounds like it would be possible. You would need to grab your private magic-cookie feed URL from your calendar settings page.. this is labeled as the 'Private address' and should have a XML button next to it.

http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/<email address>/private- <magiccookie>/basic? orderby=starttime&sortorder=ascending&futureevents=true&singleevents=true

This will get you, at max, the next 5 events sorted in ascending order by their starttime (instead of the usual descending update time ordering), will only retrieve events that are occurring in the future, and converts recurring events into their single instances.

Note: you must trust the SMS program security features and that it will not to distribute the data or the magic cookie to others. This magic cookie will always be able to be used to retrieve your events off your calendar unless you click the 'reset private URLs' button on the calendar settings page.

Cheers,

Hey, I have an SMS program that can reply to an SMS with data it gets from a URL to an XML file, I was hoping I'd be able to have like a keyword like "upcoming" so that would reply with any upcoming evens from the google calendar XML link, is this possible? Steven
