Setting up gCal with openHAB v3

I am trying to get openHAB to trigger off a Google Calendar event, but it doesn’t like “something”.

I have been following:

(which I now realize is documentation for V2, not the v3 that I am running)

Does gCal work with v3?

It bothers me a bit that is has the TTS API stuff in there.

Hey @Seganku and welcome to the community

the gcal binding won’t work with OH3 - use the ical binding instead.
