+1 on this request. We would like to use Google Calendar as the source of truth for users' working schedule and location. Accessing this information stored in Google Calendar is invaluable in driving other services that need this information - like user statuses in chat apps or our employee directory

BIG +1 - we have a commercial SaaS product that automatically schedules interviews for Workday users, and Office 365 gives us this info so we know when to schedule the interviews for each user, but Google does not. So we have to manually ask each interviewer what their timezone/working hours are - very clunky when Google Calendar already has this info.

+1, with teams becoming more and more remote with the Covid pandemic, this will be a real useful thing to expose via the API.

+1, Microsoft already has this and more and it's critical for our scheduling/team availability.
Would be essential together with working hours/schedule.

+1, While having being able to set this information through Calendar is good, not being able to access this information through the API greatly limits the potential of this feature.

+1 devoteam.com would like to see "an API to handle work location" as well
Description
A short description of the request:
With the new feature that was recently rolled out that allows users to specify if they are working from Office/Home/Multiple Locations, it has really made Google Calendar a lot more useful for a hybrid environment.
Our organization would benefit greatly from being able to both see these locations, as well as change them through the API
What is the purpose of this new feature?
To allow API applications to read from, and update a user's work location. We have a companion app for our organization to help us understand who is in the office and who is working remotely.
What existing APIs would this affect?
Calendar API
What existing data does this use?
The user's configured working location settings.
