I installed the plugin to wordpress and tried to set up the API which was no trouble on other calendar product, but ran into the OAuth consent screen which offers "Internal" or "External" choices which is not even mentioned anywhere in your setup instruction for the Google Calendar API. And the "External" says, "In this mode, your app is available to any user with a Google account. External apps that request sensitive or restricted user data must first be verified by Google. This process which may take 4-6 weeks. In addition, if you selected restricted scopes, you'll need to go through an independent security review, which can cost USD $15k-$75k."
Obviously, this is a non-starter. What am I missing here or is this an app only for wealthy corporations?
Please verify your purchase with your purchase code and open new tickets in the Amelia section so we can help out with your future questions or issues.
This is a step that is recently added in the Google OAuth consent screen, and that is why we don't have it yet in our documentation, but we will add it as soon as possible, sorry about that.
You need to choose the External type on that step and afterwards just follow the instructions from our documentation (you will get similar screen after this step to the one that we have in the documentation) and everything will work the same as before. This is just an additional step, and you don't need to pay anything additionally, the sync will work, just choose 'external' there and follow the steps.
If you have any further questions feel free to ask,
