I'm using the following to add events in calendars and it works GREAT:
    gam calendar dhay...@ncf.edu  addevent attendee "dhay...@ncf.edu" location "PMD223" summary "Testing GAM2" description "Test Today" start "2017-07-27T16:45:00Z" end "2017-07-27T17:30:00Z"
I've tried several different syntax to add a reminder/notification to the event, it returns errors such as:

C:\GAM>gam calendar dhay...@ncf.edu  addevent attendee "dhay...@ncf.edu" location "PMD223" summary "Testing GAM2" description "Test Today" start "2017-07-27T16:45:00Z" end "2017-07-27T17:30:00Z" reminder 20
    ERROR: 20 is not a valid argument for "gam calendar <email> addevent"

C:\GAM>gam calendar dhay...@ncf.edu  addevent attendee "dhay...@ncf.edu" location "PMD223" summary "Testing GAM2" description "Test Today" start "2017-07-27T16:45:00Z" end "2017-07-27T17:30:00Z" reminder email "15"
ERROR: 400: Invalid value for Integer: email - invalid

Can anyone assist?
THANKS MUCH!

Wouldn't you also need reference to minutes/hours/days?

No, hours are entered as multiples of 60 minutes.... and days as multiples of 24 x 60 minutes

Switch the order of the last two.

gam calendar dhay...@ncf.edu  addevent attendee "dhay...@ncf.edu" location "PMD223" summary "Testing GAM2" description "Test Today" start "2017-07-27T18:45:00Z" end "2017-07-27T19:30:00Z" reminder 15 email

Yes... And if you are using time zone correction then a leading zero is required:

as in

start "2018-05-27T15:00:00+9:30" will fail. Correct syntax is: start "2018-05-27T15:00:00+09:30"
