gmail schema: rsvp action not validating - google-schemas

I'm assuming this has something to do with the validation tool being an early release. The RSVP action isn't validating well. The markup below also isn't showing in gmail, and I'm at a loss as to why.

The validation tool in the docs is in alpha and it doesn't support all new types yet. Besides, RSVP and Review actions are not currently supported by Gmail, as reported in the reference guide: https://developers.google.com/gmail/schemas/reference/rsvp-action

Reservation type who is not define is show in the Highlight section

I have recently add the json data to an email for show the highlight section in the email client for a train reservation but in the email there are also a advertising section for a care hire company and it's show this in the highlight too.
Is there a way to disable the RentalCar type in the email or to indicate to indicate to the client to ignoring a specific section of the html?
JSON-LD example
{
"reservationNumber": "XXXXX",
"reservationFor": {
"trainCompany": { "name": "Company", "#type": "Organization" },
"departureStation": { "name": "Departure station", "#type": "TrainStation" },
"arrivalStation": {

},

},
"price": "10.00",

Events within email to update calendar

I am new to this and I am trying to provide a service to my tennis players where they can go on website, fill up a form for reserving the court. The form will send an email with time and place when they want to play. Upon confirmation, that should update the calendar. I tried various scenarios provided, but it did not work. I am not sure what am I missing. I just send en email to myself as follows:
<html>
<body>
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "http://schema.org",
"#type": "EventReservation",
"reservationNumber": "IO12345",
"underName": {
"#type": "Person",
"name": "John Smith"
},
"reservationFor": {
"#type": "Event",
"name": "Google I/O 2013",
"startDate": "2017-08-30T08:30:00-08:00",
"location": {
"#type": "Place",
"name": "Moscone Center",
"address": {
"#type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "800 Howard St.",
"addressLocality": "San Francisco",
"addressRegion": "CA",
"postalCode": "94103",
"addressCountry": "US"
}
}
}
}
</script>
<p>

but I see it just a text as above.
thanks in advance,

You are missing a property : reservationStatus that is required. I've used the Basic event reminder without a ticket JSON-LD:
<html>
<head>
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "http://schema.org",
"#type": "EventReservation",
"reservationNumber": "E123456789",
"reservationStatus": "http://schema.org/Confirmed",
"underName": {
"#type": "Person",
"name": "John Smith"
},
"reservationFor": {
"#type": "Event",
"name": "Foo Fighters Concert",
"startDate": "2017-09-06T11:30:00-12:30",
"location": {
"#type": "Place",
"name": "AT&T Park",
"address": {
"#type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "24 Willie Mays Plaza",
"addressLocality": "San Francisco",
"addressRegion": "CA",
"postalCode": "94107",
"addressCountry": "US"
}
}
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>
An event was reserved.
</p>
</body>
</html>
Here is the result:
I've tried your code and added the reservationStatus and it worked. You can test your schemas using Email Markup Tester.
Hope this helps.

Google Schema Markup - Event Reservation - View Action CTA

I have an event reservation markup that works. I'm now trying to add a ViewAction but I'm getting a Modify Reservations CTA instead of View Tickets as shown on this page:
https://developers.google.com/gmail/markup/highlights#ticketed_event_reservation
The Modify Reservations CTA appears to be associated with Hotel Reservations, so I'm not sure why this is showing up for my event reservation type. I know the action.name doesn't change the CTA text but it's there to follow the code.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "http://schema.org",
"#type": "EventReservation",
"reservationNumber": "123456",
"reservationStatus": "http://schema.org/Confirmed",
"underName": {
"#type": "Person",
"name": "FIRSTNAME LASTNAME"
},
"reservationFor": {
"#type": "Event",

"#type": "PostalAddress",
"streetAddress": "Emos",

}
},
"ticketNumber": "123456",

Order schema not showing right on Gmail

I'm trying to implement the Order schema as presented on : https://developers.google.com/gmail/markup/reference/order
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "http://schema.org",
"#type": "Order",
"merchant": {
"#type": "Organization",
"name": "Test Ltd."
},
"orderNumber": "56d59b633427b",
"orderStatus": "http://schema.org/PaymentComplete",
"acceptedOffer": {
"#type": "Offer",
"itemOffered": {
"#type": "Product",
"name": "Test Products"
},
"price": "41.09",
"priceCurrency": "USD",
"eligibleQuantity": {
"#type": "QuantitativeValue",
"value": "1"
},
"url": "http://project1.local/account/tickets",
"potentialAction": {
"#type": "ViewAction",
"target": "http://project1.local/account/tickets"
}
}}
</script>
The issue is that the email shows like a normal email. What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!
PS: The code validates on https://developers.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool/
Try using the JSON I've posted below. PaymentComplete is not recognized, so I used OrderDelivered. You can find more info here:
https://schema.org/OrderStatus
I noticed the word "tickets" in your URL, are you intending to use the order schema for ticket confirmations? I would suggest using event reservation instead. Using this will integrate with Google Now cards and also input the event into the user's Calendar. You can still generate a action button by using url or modifyReservationurl.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "http://schema.org",
"#type": "Order",
"merchant": {
"#type": "Organization",
"name": "Test Ltd."
},
"orderNumber": "56d59b633427b",
"orderStatus": "http://schema.org/OrderDelivered",
"priceCurrency": "USD",
"price": "41.00",
"acceptedOffer": {
"#type": "Offer",
"itemOffered": {
"#type": "Product",

"price": "41.00",

Multiple email markups for Gmail and Inbox

Does Google support adding multiple markups in one email? For e.g i want to add an action button markup for Gmail and a Highlight markup for Inbox. Can this be done? I did not find any documentation for it.
Yes, having multiple markups is supported. For example, for a flight reservation.
All the code until "arrivalTime" is standard for a basic flight confirmation, but with the addition of "checkinUrl" you add a Go-To action to create a [Check In] button in Gmail.
<script type="application/ld+json">
{
"#context": "http://schema.org",
"#type": "FlightReservation",
"reservationNumber": "RXJ34P",
"reservationStatus": "http://schema.org/Confirmed",
"underName": {
"#type": "Person",
"name": "Eva Green"
},
"reservationFor": {
"#type": "Flight",
"flightNumber": "110",
"airline": {
"#type": "Airline",
"name": "United",
"iataCode": "UA"
},
"departureAirport": {
"#type": "Airport",
"name": "San Francisco Airport",
"iataCode": "SFO"
},
"departureTime": "2017-03-04T20:15:00-08:00",
"arrivalAirport": {
"#type": "Airport",
"name": "John F. Kennedy International Airport",
"iataCode": "JFK"
},
"arrivalTime": "2017-03-05T06:30:00-05:00"
},
"checkinUrl": "http://united.com/onlinecheckin.html",
"potentialAction": {
"#type": "CheckInAction",
"target": "http://united.com/onlinecheckin.html"
}
}
</script>
