Calendar.ListEventsAsync
List one page of event occurrences inside a time window
Task<Page> ListEventsAsync( DateTimeOffset from, DateTimeOffset to, string? timezone = null, int? limit = null, string? cursor = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Expands every event in the workspace into its occurrences between from and to and returns one page of them, sorted by start time and then by event id. A recurring series gives one row per instance in the window, with its excluded dates left out, and every row points back to its event through eventId. The window is required because a repeating series has no end to list up to. Follow nextCursor while hasMore is true, with the same from, to and timezone:, to read every occurrence, or let ListAllEventsAsync and IterateEventsAsync do that walk.
to must be after from and at most 366 days later. A missing from or to is a 422 invalid_parameter, while a value that does not parse, a reversed or overlong window, or an unknown zone is a 400 invalid_parameter naming the field. Both bounds take a DateTimeOffset or an ISO 8601 string, and the SDK sends a DateTimeOffset as an ISO 8601 instant in UTC.
timezone is an IANA zone and defaults to UTC on the server. It is used to expand any event stored without a zone of its own, which is what decides the day an all day event lands on.
Parameters
fromDateTimeOffsetRequiredStart of the window.
toDateTimeOffsetRequiredEnd of the window, after
fromand at most 366 days later.timezonestring?IANA zone such as
Europe/London, at most 64 characters. Defaults toUTC.limitint?Occurrences per page, a whole number from 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.
cursorstring?The
nextCursorof the previous page, sent with the same window. It is opaque, so never build one yourself.apiKeystring?Overrides the client's API key for this call only.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
Returns
A Page of occurrence objects with items, hasMore and nextCursor. Each item has eventId, uid, start, end, allDay, summary, location, status, transparency, isOrganizer, organizerEmail, recurring, myPartstat and attendeeCount.
Example
var today = new DateTimeOffset(DateTime.UtcNow.Date, TimeSpan.Zero); var page = await client.Calendar.ListEventsAsync(today, today.AddDays(7), timezone: "Europe/London", limit: 50); foreach (var occurrence in page){ Console.WriteLine($"{occurrence["start"]} {occurrence["summary"]} {occurrence["myPartstat"]?.ToString() ?? "not invited"}");} if (page.HasMore){ Console.WriteLine($"More from cursor {page.NextCursor}");}Notes
myPartstatis the response recorded for any address this workspace holds on its own domains, or for the addresses a narrowed key covers, and null when none of them is an attendee. A workspace with no address on its own domains matches no attendee, so every row reads null.A narrowed key only sees occurrences whose organiser is one of the addresses it covers or where one of them is an attendee.
Cancelled events are not filtered out. Check
statusforCANCELLED.Nothing in the window is dropped. A series repeats at most once a day, so one series gives at most one row per day of the window, and every one of them is reachable through the pages.
The cursor holds the start time and event id of the last row, so an event deleted or moved between pages never breaks the walk. A cursor this list did not hand out is a 400
invalid_cursor.
Also available in
Calendar.ListAllEventsAsync
Collect every occurrence inside a time window into one object
Task<IReadOnlyList<JsonObject>> ListAllEventsAsync( DateTimeOffset from, DateTimeOffset to, string? timezone = null, int? limit = null, string? cursor = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Walks every page of ListEventsAsync for one window and returns all of its occurrences, sorted by start time and then by event id. It follows nextCursor until hasMore is false, sending the same from, to and timezone: with each request.
A window of up to 366 days of a busy calendar can hold thousands of occurrences, so prefer IterateEventsAsync when you can stop early.
Parameters
fromDateTimeOffsetRequiredStart of the window.
toDateTimeOffsetRequiredEnd of the window, after
fromand at most 366 days later.timezonestring?IANA zone such as
Europe/London, at most 64 characters. Defaults toUTC.limitint?Page size for each request, 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.
cursorstring?Starts the walk from this cursor instead of the start of the window.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
Returns
A list of occurrence objects holding every occurrence in the window, earliest first.
Example
using OpenEmail.Constants; var occurrences = await client.Calendar.ListAllEventsAsync(DateTimeOffset.Parse("2026-10-01T00:00:00Z"), DateTimeOffset.Parse("2026-11-01T00:00:00Z"), limit: 100); foreach (var occurrence in occurrences){ if ((string?)occurrence["transparency"] == CalendarTransparencies.Opaque) { Console.WriteLine($"Busy {occurrence["start"]} to {occurrence["end"]}"); }}Notes
If any page fails the call throws and the occurrences already fetched are discarded.
Also available in
Calendar.IterateEventsAsync
Stream the occurrences inside a time window one at a time
IAsyncEnumerable<JsonObject> IterateEventsAsync( DateTimeOffset from, DateTimeOffset to, string? timezone = null, int? limit = null, string? cursor = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Returns an IAsyncEnumerable<JsonObject> over the occurrences in one window that yields them individually, earliest first, and fetches the next page only when the current one is drained. Nothing is requested until you consume it, and breaking out of the loop stops further requests, which makes it the way to find the next free slot or the next meeting without reading the whole window.
The walk ends when hasMore is false, when a page carries no nextCursor, or when the server repeats a cursor.
Parameters
fromDateTimeOffsetRequiredStart of the window.
toDateTimeOffsetRequiredEnd of the window, after
fromand at most 366 days later.timezonestring?IANA zone such as
Europe/London, at most 64 characters. Defaults toUTC.limitint?Page size per request, 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.
cursorstring?Starts the walk from this cursor instead of the start of the window.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
Returns
An IAsyncEnumerable<JsonObject> that yields one occurrence per step.
Example
var from = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow;var to = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow.AddDays(30); await foreach (var occurrence in client.Calendar.IterateEventsAsync(from, to)){ if (occurrence["myPartstat"] is not null) { Console.WriteLine($"Next meeting: {occurrence["start"]} {occurrence["summary"]}"); break; }}Notes
A page request that fails throws out of the
foreachloop, after every occurrence of the pages before it has been yielded.
Also available in
Calendar.GetEventAsync
Read an event with its attendees
Task<JsonObject> GetEventAsync( string id, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Returns a stored event with its attendees and their responses. What the server understood from the iCalendar data is structured here: recurrence holds the RRULE text, exdates the excluded instances, organizer the organiser and alarms the reminders, each an object with minutesBefore and action. The raw iCalendar source is not included, and GetEventIcsAsync serves the event as a document.
id is the event id, the eventId on an occurrence, and not the iCalendar uid. A recurring series is one event however many occurrences it has, so start and end describe its first instance. messageId and threadId link the event to mail in the mailbox when there is any.
Attendees come back in the order they were added, each with partstat, role, rsvp, cutype and respondedAt. A narrowed key gets a 404 unless one of the addresses it covers organises the event or is on the attendee list, and a key that holds a whole domain covers every address on it.
Parameters
idstringRequiredEvent id, the
eventIdof an occurrence, such ascal_followed by 24 hex characters.apiKeystring?Overrides the client's API key for this call only.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
Returns
A JsonObject with id, uid, sequence, summary, description, location, url, start, end, allDay, timezone, recurrence, exdates, status, transparency, visibility, organizer, isOrganizer, source, messageId, threadId, alarms, attendees, createdAt and updatedAt.
Example
var entry = await client.Calendar.GetEventAsync("cal_3f9a1c7e5b2d48a06c1e9f4b"); Console.WriteLine($"{entry["summary"]}, {entry["recurrence"]?.ToString() ?? "one off"}"); foreach (var attendee in entry["attendees"]?.AsArray() ?? []){ Console.WriteLine($"{attendee?["email"]}: {attendee?["partstat"]}");}Notes
status,transparencyandvisibilitycarry iCalendar values, and default toCONFIRMED,OPAQUEandPUBLIC.An attendee's
partstatdefaults toNEEDS-ACTIONandroletoREQ-PARTICIPANTuntil a response is recorded.
Also available in
Calendar.GetEventIcsAsync
Download an event as an iCalendar document
Task<string> GetEventIcsAsync( string id, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Returns the event serialised as an .ics document, as a raw string rather than parsed JSON. The server sends it as text/calendar; charset=utf-8 with a download filename built from the event's uid, and the SDK requests that type and returns the body untouched.
The document declares METHOD:PUBLISH, and the content type carries no method parameter. That is deliberate: a REQUEST document makes a calendar client offer accept and decline and reply to the organiser, and this endpoint has no authority to invite anyone. Import it to show what the event currently is, not to send an invitation.
It holds one VEVENT with the attendees and their participation status, the recurrence rule, excluded dates and alarms. Lines end in CRLF and long lines are folded. DTSTAMP is the time of the request, so two downloads of an unchanged event differ on that line.
Parameters
idstringRequiredEvent id, the
eventIdof an occurrence.apiKeystring?Overrides the client's API key for this call only.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
Returns
A string, the iCalendar text from BEGIN:VCALENDAR to END:VCALENDAR.
Example
var ics = (await client.Calendar.GetEventIcsAsync("cal_8d3f0a2b9c4e41f7a6b5c2d1")); Console.WriteLine(ics);Notes
Errors still come back as JSON and throw
OpenEmailApiException, so a failure never comes back as a string.Timed events are written in the zone they were created in, as local times with a
TZIDand aVTIMEZONEthat carries the rules of that zone, and all day events asDATEvalues.A narrowed key gets a 404 on the same terms as
GetEventAsync.
Also available in
Calendar.CreateEventAsync
Put an event on the calendar
Task<JsonObject> CreateEventAsync( IReadOnlyDictionary<string, object?> body, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Creates an event, as New event on the Calendar page of the app does. start and end take a DateTimeOffset or ISO 8601 with a zone, and the SDK sends a DateTimeOffset as a UTC instant. timezone is the IANA zone the event belongs to, which decides what an all-day event means.
With attendees, an invitation goes to each of them by email from from, which has to be an address the key may send as, so the call also needs emails:send. Send ["sendInvites"] = false to keep it to your own calendar.
Parameters
summarystringRequiredThe title, 1 to 255 characters.
startDateTimeOffset or stringRequiredWhen it starts, a
DateTimeOffsetor ISO 8601 with a zone. ADateTimeOffsetis sent as an instant in UTC.endDateTimeOffset or stringRequiredWhen it ends, after
startand at most two years later.descriptionstringNotes about the event, up to 8,000 characters.
locationstringWhere it is: a room, an address or a link.

fromstringThe address the invitations come from. It has to be one the key may send as.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client's API key for this call only.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
Returns
A JsonObject for the new event, shaped like the one Calendar.GetEventAsync returns, with its attendees and their responses.
Example
var entry = await client.Calendar.CreateEventAsync(new Body{ ["summary"] = "Planning", ["start"] = DateTimeOffset.Parse("2026-10-12 09:00Z"), ["end"] = DateTimeOffset.Parse("2026-10-12 09:30Z"), ["timezone"] = "Europe/London", ["attendees"] = new[] { new Body { ["email"] = "[email protected]", ["name"] = "Ada Lovelace" } }, ["reminders"] = new[] { new Body { ["minutesBefore"] = 10 } }, ["from"] = "[email protected]",}); Console.WriteLine($"{entry["id"]} {entry["start"]}");Notes
The SDK does not retry it, because a second call makes a second event and invites everybody again.
A key that may not send as
fromis refused with 403from_address_forbidden, and an event with attendees and nofromwith 422invalid_parameter. Invitations withoutemails:sendare a 403insufficient_scope.
Also available in
Calendar.UpdateEventAsync
Change an event
Task<JsonObject> UpdateEventAsync( string id, IReadOnlyDictionary<string, object?> patch, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Changes an event you organise. A field you leave out keeps its value, and attendees replaces the whole list. Everyone invited gets the updated invitation by email from from, so a change to an event with attendees needs emails:send too, unless sendInvites is false.
Parameters
idstringRequiredEvent id, the
eventIdof an occurrence, such ascal_followed by 24 hex characters.summarystringThe title, 1 to 255 characters.
startDateTimeOffset or stringWhen it starts, a
DateTimeOffsetor ISO 8601 with a zone. ADateTimeOffsetis sent as an instant in UTC.endDateTimeOffset or stringWhen it ends, after

apiKeystring?Overrides the client's API key for this call only.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
Returns
A JsonObject for the event as it stands after the change, shaped like the one Calendar.GetEventAsync returns, with sequence one higher.
Example
var entry = await client.Calendar.UpdateEventAsync("cal_3f9a1c7e5b2d48a06c1e9f4b", new Body{ ["start"] = "2026-10-12T10:00:00Z", ["end"] = "2026-10-12T10:30:00Z", ["from"] = "[email protected]",}); Console.WriteLine($"{entry["start"]}, sequence {entry["sequence"]}");Notes
The SDK does not retry it, because a retry after a lost response sends the update to everybody again.
An event organised by somebody else is refused with 403
not_organizer: answer it withRespondToEventAsyncinstead. An event the key does not reach is a 404.
Also available in
Calendar.DeleteEventAsync
Remove an event from the calendar
Task<JsonObject> DeleteEventAsync( string id, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Removes an event for good, as Remove does in the app. Nobody else is told, so call off a meeting with others in it with CancelEventAsync instead.

var deleted = await client.Calendar.DeleteEventAsync("cal_3f9a1c7e5b2d48a06c1e9f4b"); Console.WriteLine($"{deleted["id"]} is off the calendar");Notes
An event organised by somebody else is refused with 403
not_organizer, and an event that is gone or that the key does not reach is a 404.
Also available in
Calendar.CancelEventAsync
Call off a meeting
Task<JsonObject> CancelEventAsync( string id, IReadOnlyDictionary<string, object?>? body = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Cancels a meeting you organise, as Cancel meeting does in the app. It stays on the calendar with status CANCELLED, and everyone invited is told it is off by email from from, so a meeting with attendees also needs emails:send.
Parameters

Also available in
Calendar.DeclineProposalAsync
Decline a proposed time
Task<JsonObject> DeclineProposalAsync( string id, IReadOnlyDictionary<string, object?> body, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Keeps the original time of a meeting you organise after a guest proposed another one, as Keep the original does on the event in the app. The guest is told by email from from, or from the organising address, so it needs emails:send as well. To take the proposed time instead, change the event with Calendar.UpdateEventAsync.
Parameters
idstringRequiredEvent id, the
eventIdof an occurrence, such ascal_followed by 24 hex characters.attendeestringRequiredThe guest whose proposal you decline, by email address.

A subscription that is not yours is a 404
calendar_subscription_not_found.

Calendar.ImportIcsAsync
Import a calendar file
Task<JsonObject> ImportIcsAsync( Stream data, string? filename = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Sends an iCalendar (.ics) file as the request body and queues it. Its events become events of your own that you can edit, and nobody on them is sent anything, now or when you change them later, unless you ask for that on the change. Poll GetImportAsync until status is completed.
The file may be 10 MB and hold 25,000 events. Several calendars in one file are merged, and the report keeps their names. An event whose UID is already in the workspace is skipped and counted, never overwritten, so sending the same file twice adds nothing.
data is a readable Stream, and it goes out as text/calendar.
Parameters
dataStreamRequiredThe .ics file: a readable
Stream.filenamestring?The name to show for the file in the list of imports, at most 255 characters.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for this call only.
Returns
A JsonObject with status: queued.
Example
await using var file = File.OpenRead("calendar.ics"); var import = await client.Calendar.ImportIcsAsync(file, filename: "calendar.ics"); Console.WriteLine($"{import["id"]} is {import["status"]}");Notes
A body that is not an iCalendar file is a 400

GetEventIcsAsyncreturns, encode it first withnew TextEncoder().encode(text).An upload that outlasts the client
Timeoutfails as a network error, so raise it on the client for a large file on a slow connection.Not retried automatically.

Calendar.ListImportsAsync
List calendar imports
Task<Page> ListImportsAsync( int? limit = null, string? cursor = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Returns one page of the calendar files and calendars brought in, newest first, each with what it added and what it left out. Beside the files sent with ImportIcsAsync it lists the calendars that came with a mailbox import, and those carry the id of that import in parentImportId.
Paging is keyset. limit: takes 1 to 100 and defaults to 25, and nextCursor goes back as cursor: while hasMore is true. ListAllImportsAsync and IterateImportsAsync do that walk for you.
Parameters
limitint?Imports per page, a whole number from 1 to 100. The server defaults to 25.
cursorstring?The
nextCursorfrom the previous page. Never build one yourself.cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for this call only.
Returns
A Page with items, hasMore and nextCursor.
Example
var page = await client.Calendar.ListImportsAsync(limit: 10); foreach (var import in page){ Console.WriteLine($"{import["id"]} {import["source"]} {import["status"]}: {import["counts"]?["imported"]} events added");}Notes

invalid_cursor.A GET is retried automatically on network failure and on 408, 500, 502, 503 and 504 responses, up to the client
MaxRetries, and on a 429 only when it carries aRetry-Afterof a minute or less.
Also available in
Calendar.ListAllImportsAsync
Collect every calendar import into one list
Task<IReadOnlyList<JsonObject>> ListAllImportsAsync( int? limit = null, string? cursor = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Follows nextCursor from page to page and returns every calendar import, newest first.
Everything is held in memory before the call returns. Prefer IterateImportsAsync when you can stop early. limit sets the page size of each request, not the total.
Parameters
limitint?Page size per request, from 1 to 100, defaulting to 25 on the server.
cursorstring?A cursor from an earlier page to start after.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request in flight and rejects the whole walk.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.
Returns
A list of JsonObject items holding every import across all pages.
Example
var imports = await client.Calendar.ListAllImportsAsync(); Console.WriteLine($"{imports.Count} calendar imports, {imports.Count(import => (bool?)import["undoable"] == true)} of them can be undone");Notes
A failure on any page rejects the whole call, and the imports already fetched are discarded.
Also available in
Calendar.IterateImportsAsync
Stream calendar imports one at a time
IAsyncEnumerable<JsonObject> IterateImportsAsync( int? limit = null, string? cursor = null, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Returns an IAsyncEnumerable<JsonObject> that yields calendar imports one by one, newest first, and requests the next page only once the current one is drained. Nothing is fetched until you consume it, and breaking out of the loop stops the requests.
Parameters
limitint?Page size per request, from 1 to 100, defaulting to 25 on the server.
cursorstring?A cursor from an earlier page to start after.
cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request in flight and rejects the whole walk.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for every page of this walk.
Returns
An IAsyncEnumerable<JsonObject> yielding one import per step.
Example
await foreach (var import in client.Calendar.IterateImportsAsync(limit: 50)){ if ((string?)import["status"] == "failed") { Console.WriteLine($"{import["id"]} failed"); break; }}Notes
The generator is lazy, so an abandoned loop costs only the pages you consumed.
Also available in
Calendar.GetImportAsync
Get a calendar import
Task<JsonObject> GetImportAsync( string id, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Returns one calendar import with its counts and its report: the calendars it read, how many events it left out and why, and up to 20 of the events it left out. Poll it after ImportIcsAsync until status is completed or failed.
counts.imported is what was added and counts.skipped what was left out, which report.skipped breaks down by reason: uid-taken for an event that was already here, no-start for one with no start time, invalid for one that could not be read and empty for a file or calendar that held no events.
Parameters
idstringRequiredCalendar import id,
iimp_followed by 24 hex characters.cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for this call only.
Returns
A JsonObject with status, counts, report, undoable and when it started, finished and was undone.
Example
var import = await client.Calendar.GetImportAsync("iimp_3f9a1c07d2b84e6a9c5b1f20"); Console.WriteLine($"{import["status"]}: {import["counts"]?["imported"]} added, {import["counts"]?["skipped"]} left out");Notes
An id that names no calendar import is a 404
item_import_not_found.A GET is retried automatically on network failure and on 408, 500, 502, 503 and 504 responses, up to the client
MaxRetries, and on a 429 only when it carries aRetry-Afterof a minute or less.
Also available in
Calendar.UndoImportAsync
Remove what a calendar import added
Task<JsonObject> UndoImportAsync( string id, string? apiKey = null, CancellationToken cancellationToken = default)Deletes every event the import added, changed since or not, and marks the import undone. Nobody is told. Events that were skipped because they were already here are not touched.
Parameters
idstringRequiredCalendar import id,
iimp_followed by 24 hex characters.cancellationTokenCancellationTokenCancels the request.
apiKeystring?Overrides the client API key for this call only.
Returns
A JsonObject with status: undone and undoneAt set.
Example
try{ var undone = await client.Calendar.UndoImportAsync("iimp_3f9a1c07d2b84e6a9c5b1f20"); Console.WriteLine($"{undone["id"]} is {undone["status"]} since {undone["undoneAt"]}");}catch (OpenEmailApiException error) when (error.IsConflict){ Console.WriteLine("That import is still running or was already removed");}Notes
An import that is still running, or was already removed, is a 409
item_import_not_undoable.undoableon the import says whether the call would remove anything.An id that names no calendar import is a 404
item_import_not_found.Not retried automatically.
