Hey i'm able to authenticate and authorize a user with the javascript API for google calendar. what i want to do next is subscribe that user to a public calendar. I was thinking i could just call the google.gdata.calendar.CalendarEntry constructor with the id of the calendar but that didn't work
var entry = google.gdata.calendar.CalendarEntry("idOfCalendar");
i also tried creating an instance of a entry id with google.gdata.atom.Id("idOfCalendar"); and adding that to the CalendarEntry constructor. Using the set methods didn't work either.
I use the InsertEntry method to add the entry but i get the following error
Error: Valid calendar id must be supplied for adding calendar to favorites list in allcalendars projection.
I can access the events of this calendar using google.gdata.calendar.CalendarEventQuery()
The google api for javascript doesn't give a lot of examples anyone know the answer to my problem or a good resource for working with the google calendar api? do you think i should be using php or jason instead?
** Edit I found an example of what I want in the Java Api link so i tried
function addSubscriptionToCalendar() {
var feedUri = "";
var calendarEntry = new google.gdata.calendar.CalendarEntry();
calendarEntry.setId("nhl_21_%54oronto+%4daple+%4ceafs#[email protected]");
calendarService.insertEntry(feedUri, calendarEntry, function(){alert("calendar added")}, handleError);
}
but i got the same error

Reset to default 4You should be using owncalendars feed to modify/add calendar entry for the authenticated user not allcalendars.
Sounds like your calendar id is invalid. The id from your second example appears to be URL encoded. Try using the decoded value:
nhl_21_Toronto Maple Leafs#[email protected]
The gdata API for calendars has been switched off; the new way to do this is via: https://developers.google./google-apps/calendar/v3/reference/calendarList/insert
