# Update a Google Calendar event

Automatically update a Google Calendar event on calendar.google.com. Edit an existing Google Calendar event by its eid (from list_events/search_events/create_event). Opens the event composer and applies only the fields you pass — title, start, end (ISO datetime, or YYYY-MM-DD with all_day), all_day, location, description, add_guests — then Saves, sending update/invitation emails to guests when present. Single (non-recurring) events; a recurring instance's this/all scope dialog isn't handled. Changing start alone shifts the end to keep the duration unless you also pass end.
