GCal Quick-Add
Extension Delisted
This extension is no longer available in the official store. Delisted on 2025-09-15.
This extension let you quick add an event to Google Calendar.
UPDATE: new icons
UPDATE: now the extension won't sometimes populate authorization window
This simple extension communicates with Google Calendar API's quick add function. Just type in an event in a natural way like "Meet my boss at 5 pm in her office". This extension would then help you create a event and display the event information as well as the url to the event in the GCalendar.

** OAuth Needed **
You will need a google calendar account.
The extension asks for OAuth grant when first launches. You can clear access token in the options page.
If "add event" button happens not work, try re-grant access.
** Multi Calendar Support **
If you have many calendars, you can choose which calendar to write in the options page. Default calendar is the first one in your list.
** About the icon **
The original icon is a lovely sketch of my girlfriend. To make this extension more formal, more calendar-related, I replaced it with the current ugly one. Hope I can draw a better one in the summer.

Cette extension ne fonctionne pas
After I click on 'Accept' to grant this addon access to manage my calendars, it returns to a 'about:blank' page! Please fix this! I would really like to use this addon (especially for the 'multiple calendars' feature!
OAuth Needed returns a blank page, app does not do anything.
I replaced google's own calendar extension with this cute one.
Simple and easy to use!
