I get the error as
{
"error": {
"code": 500,
"message": "Internal error encountered.",
"status": "INTERNAL"
}
}
Am I missing something?

Answer 1

It looks like the 500 Internal Error message you are receiving is due to the fact that you are using the calendarUrls field in the request.
This might in fact be a bug so I have taken the opportunity to file a report on Google's Issue Tracker here.
I suggest you star the issue as all the updates will be posted there.
