Apple Calendar not syncing with Google Calendar

My Apple Calendar is no longer syncing with Google Calendar.

1) When I add/edit events on my iCalendar app on my iPhone these do not appear on the Google Calendar

2) When I do the same but logging into iCloud and accessing Calendar, same result; no change on Google Calendar

3) Changes ARE syncing on the Apple Calendars (icloud and iphone app)

4) Any and all events added/editted on Google Calendar are synching TO my iCalendar app on my iPhone

5) I've tried deleting that Apple Calendars, then adding them back (copying the URL, paste, etc). When I do, everyting appears in the Google Calendar.

6) But, again when I try to add or edit Apple Calendar events, they do not appear in Google Calendar

7) Lastly, when I try to delete or edit Apple Calendar events via my Google Calendar I am unable. "You do not have permission to edit this event." pops up.

I've been on Apple Support via Chat. Nothing worked. Told me to check with Google support (which there isn't any) and then call the Apple support number.

Called the Apple Support number. They couldn't figure it out.

She put me on hold to speak with her supervisor. Came back and said that since the iCloud Calendar and iCalendar on my iPhone ARE synching with each other, then there isn't anything more that they will do. "It's a problem on Googles end. Is there anything else that I can help you with?"

Has anyone else had this issue, and if so, what steps did you take to make you Google Calendar receive Apple Calendar info?

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

This worked for me ... to solve problem iCal (phone) not syncing To Google Cal (but other way works)

Create event in Apple cal … in the Event Details the option Calendar needs to be set to my - gmail address.
5 secs later it appears in Google Cal PC - problem solved ... but now need to ...
Set the default Calendar to this, ie gmail address.
On phone Apple iPhone > settings > calendar > default Calendar - set to my gmail.com address
Solved !

Thank you for trying to help. I found Full Access under privacy and security, and that was already on. I don't see a toggle for full access by going directly to Google calendar as you suggest here. What I find is Settings>Calendar>Accounts> There I find iCloud, the EXCHANGE, and the GMAIL accounts. The toggles under those categories are mail, contacts, calendars, and notes, and all those are on. Perhaps I don't understand your instructions? My iphone and google calendar were flawlessly in sync until I recently got a new iphone, and now - as the original poster explained - I can get my google calendar events on the new iphone, but any calendar event I enter on the iphone is not shared to the google calendar. I guess maybe I'll just keep messing with it until I can work past the glitch.

Thank you Hi2dani!! This worked! But I could only find the accounts window on the Google Cal on my phone. I swear Google and Apple make updates just to turn off certain settings to f$&@ with us as I did not change any setting and synch stopped between Apple and Google cals. Accounts are NOT in settings, click on your icon on the upper right of the Google cal. Ugh

My icloud and Gmail are the same email address. This has been the only thing I tried that actually merged all of my icloud calendars into my Google calendar... but only on the phone app. Is there a way to connect them on Google Calendar opened in a browser?

This was after I noticed that all of my previously added Apple Calendars were no longer listed in Google Calendar. So I had to add them back by copying the URL, paste, etc.

still won't work. Hot Schedules used to sync with my Apple Calendar and it keeps telling me to go to the settings you recommended and nothing works. This just started when I did the ios 17 update

Thanks!
