Hi Alain, Thanks for your response.
The api reference makes a distinction between a birthday and other anniversaries. An anniversary is a type of gContact:event (http:// code.google.com/apis/contacts/docs/3.0/reference.html#gcEvent) My question is with respect setting the anniversary using this gcEvent element. -Sriram On Nov 28, 7:18 pm, Alain Vongsouvanh <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > Please have a look at the reference > guide<http://code.google.com/apis/contacts/docs/3.0/reference.html#gcBirthday>, > the field you are looking for is gContact:birthday. > There's a similar class in the Python client library. > > Best, > Alain > > > > > > > > > > On Mon, Nov 28, 2011 at 1:43 AM, Karra <[email protected]> wrote: > > > Does anyone have a clue about this one?
