Events added through Google API PHP client not showing in Calendar

Question

I'm using Google API PHP client to add events to my calendar. ID is returned successfully after the insert & When I fetch that event using the ID it displays summary & everything correctly & for some reason , the event is showing up in my calendar

I'm using Service Account Credentials. Is there something to be enabled to get this working?

Here's my Code

session_start();
    require dirname(__FILE__).'/google-api-php-client-master/autoload.php';

    $client_id = '<client ID>';
    $service_account_name = '<Service Account Name>';
    $key_file_location = dirname(__FILE__).'/API-Project-96c2a9122085.p12';


    if (!strlen($service_account_name) || !strlen($key_file_location)) {
        echo missingServiceAccountDetailsWarning();
    }


    $client = new Google_Client();
    $client->setApplicationName("Client_Library_Examples");

    $service = new Google_Service_Calendar($client);


    if (isset($_SESSION['service_token'])) {
        $client->setAccessToken($_SESSION['service_token']);
    }

    $key = file_get_contents($key_file_location);

    $cred = new Google_Auth_AssertionCredentials($service_account_name,array('https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar'),$key);

    $client->setAssertionCredentials($cred);

    if ($client->getAuth()->isAccessTokenExpired()) {
        $client->getAuth()->refreshTokenWithAssertion($cred);
    }

    $_SESSION['service_token'] = $client->getAccessToken();

    $event = new Google_Service_Calendar_Event();
    $event->setSummary("WHY IS THIS NOT WOKING?");
    $start = new Google_Service_Calendar_EventDateTime();

    $start->setDateTime(date('Y-m-d\TH:i:s',strtotime('2014-12-24 10:00:00')));
    $start->setTimeZone('Australia/Melbourne');
    $event->setStart($start);
    $end = new Google_Service_Calendar_EventDateTime();
    $end->setDateTime(date('Y-m-d\TH:i:s',strtotime('2014-12-26 12:00:00')));
    $end->setTimeZone('Australia/Melbourne');
    $event->setEnd($end);
    $newEvent = $service->events->insert('primary', $event);
    $newEvent->getId();
    $event = $service->events->get('primary', $newEvent->getId());
    echo '<pre>'; print_r($event); echo '</pre>';

With the new Google_Client API, you need to share your calendar to yourself.

$scope = new Google_Service_Calendar_AclRuleScope();
$scope->setType('user');
$scope->setValue( 'Your Email Goes Here' );

$rule = new Google_Service_Calendar_AclRule();
$rule->setRole( 'owner' );
$rule->setScope( $scope );

$result = $service->acl->insert('primary', $rule);

Let me know if you still have issue.
