Change to the format of secondary Calendar and resources
Wednesday, 20 May 2020
Quick launch summary
Starting June 3, 2020, the calendar IDs associated with newly created secondary calendars and resources will have a new format. In the new format, your G Suite account’s domain name will not be included in secondary or resource calendar IDs.- The existing email format for calendar resources is the following: {customer domain}_{random characters}@resource.calendar.google.com
- The format for secondary calendars is the following: {customer domain}_{random characters}@group.calendar.google.com
- The new format for newly created calendar resources will be the following: {random characters}@resource.calendar.google.com
- The new format for newly created secondary calendars will be the following: {random characters}@group.calendar.google.com
This change is only cosmetic and no Google Calendar functionality is affected because of it. However, if you maintain a script that parses/extracts the domain name from Resource/Secondary Calendar IDs, please update your scripts to ensure they continue to work following this change.
Rollout pace
- Rapid and Scheduled Release domains: Extended rollout (potentially longer than 15 days for feature visibility) starting on June 3, 2020
