Create Google Calendar reminders with Google App Script

Question

I am having a problem finding how to create a Google Calendar Reminder via Google Script. I am not talking about an event reminder, as in a reminder that is emailed or SMS to you before an event on your calendar. What I need, is to create reminders in the google calendar. These reminders are depicted with the finger and string with a bow. Does anyone know the Calendar Service class to use? I assume reminders would be in the Calendar Service, but for some reason, I can't find it.

Here is a link to the reminders I am talking about, they are different from the event reminders you can add to an event.

I think this yet to be added in the API, you can follow this [feature request](https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/36760283) to be updated. Hope this helps. — Mr.Rebot, Feb 25 '18 at 17:35

Not currently possible through GAS, there is no official API for Reminders at the present time. More information (including some third party workarounds) at this similar Stack Overflow question.

Found these 3 reminder options in the same link (Calendar Service) as provided in OP :)

Looks like these features are available now!

These are reminders for the event, which this question is (explicitly) not about. – Wiktor Czajkowski Mar 27 '20 at 16:19
