Authorizing Google Calendar w/ Clerk & Convex
Hey all -- I cloned the convex/clerk starter and am participating in the @Web Dev Cody hackathon.
I'm trying to let my users view their google calendar events on a screen. I've added the correct scopes to the custom clerk Google auth provider (https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar) as well as set up the correct oauth in Google cloud console.
When I set up a route handler to get the google token, and then pass it into the client component to get the calendar events i continue to get auth errors.
Is there something I'm missing? Is there documentation somewhere that better explains how to set this up? I should set it up as a private procedure right? Any help is much appreciated 🙂

Cool, it sounds like you need to call this
clerkClient.users.getUserOauthAccessToken() either in Next.js or in a Convex action, then use it in the Google calendar API calls?does it matter which one?
Nope, either one works
