A **calendar event** represents a non-appointment block on a clinic's calendar (e.g., a staff meeting, lunch break, out-of-office, or clinic closure). Calendar events can be one-off or recurring, and may block appointment scheduling depending on configuration. Events are scoped to specific calendar resources (providers) or can apply to all resources on a calendar. If an event is an exception to a recurring series, it references the parent recurring event. ## OpenAPI ````yaml get /ext/v2/calendar-events/{calendar_event_id}/ openapi: 3.1.0 info: description: '' title: NinjaAPI version: 2.0.0 servers: - url: https://connect.vetcove.com/ security: [] paths: /ext/v2/calendar-events/{calendar_event_id}/: get: tags: - Scheduler summary: Fetch a calendar event description: >- Fetches a calendar event by its ID.
