Criteria for adding and updating calendar information

The criteria object specifies the calendar to create or the calendar entry to add or update:

To create a new calendar, specify the properties listed in Table: Creating a new calendar.
To add a new calendar entry, specify the properties listed in Table: Adding a new calendar entry.
To update an existing calendar entry, first use GetList to retrieve the LocalId of that entry, and then specify the properties listed in Table: Updating a calendar entry. Use the LocalId returned by GetList as the value for Item.LocalId.

The criteria object has two main properties: Type and Item.
