I sync org with Google's calendar using MobileOrg on my phone as the
intermediary. Generally works quite well. I would be using MobileOrg
regardless so calendar synchronisation is a very nice bonus.

Interesting - Android or iOS? if iOS - I would like to know how you do
it.

I have build a merge of elisp code from 2 people (org-gcal and
google-calendar) and enhanced it a little bit.
I can sync both ways from Emacs.
The code is ugly, so I won't publish it. But if anybody wants to clean it
up and make it more solid, I'll send it.

I would like to see the code, perhaps we can make something usable.

Eric,
Am I correct to assume that you're speaking about MobileOrg on an Android
phone?
I can't see how my iPhone's MobileOrg would allow me to sync with Google,
or am I completely missing out on such an important functionality?

yes, sorry, I should have been more clear. Android version of
MobileOrg. I know nothing about the iOS version.

I export the agenda using org-icalendar-combine-agenda-files. If
you have access to a server, it is enough to point
org-icalendar-combined-agenda-file to the right location in your
server and then adding the ics file location in google calendar
(Other calendars/Add by URL). You can automate this with a timer:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(org-icalendar-combined-agenda-file
"~/public_html/calendar.ics")
(run-with-idle-timer (* 60 60) t
'org-icalendar-combine-agenda-files)
#+END_SRC
If you do not have access to a server, you could use github
(https://pages.github.com/) or bitbucket
(https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/publishing-a-website-on-bitbucket-221449776.html)
to create a website for your account. Then you can point
org-icalendar-combined-agenda-file to the repo of your website and
commit and push every time that you export the agenda to the ics
file. In this case change org-icalendar-combined-agenda-file
accordingly.
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(org-icalendar-combined-agenda-file
"/path/to/personal/website/repo/calendar.ics")
#+END_SRC
If you do not like timers, you can also automate the process
creating an sh file:
#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
#!/bin/bash
emacsclient -a '' -e "(org-icalendar-combine-agenda-files nil)"
cd /path/to/personal/website/repo
git add calendar.ics
git commit -m "Update calendar"
git push
#+END_EXAMPLE
And then using a cronjob.
Best,
--
Jorge.

How do you have this working with Google? It quit working for me due to
authentication changes at the Google end. I cannot remember the details
unfortunately.

Just followed the instructions on the github README page. I've not
looked this authentification problem in Google but from what I gathered
it's still working using the old endpoint for the time being. I'll
reconsider when it won't.

Interesting. I cannot remember what happened but org-caldav stopped
working and so I went back to using MobileOrg. I'll stick to what I
have for now but it's good to know that there still exist alternative
approaches, especially for the OP.
