your calendar events.
2. Click on "Extensions" > "Apps Script" in the Google Sheets menu to open the Apps
Script editor.
3. Copy the following script into the Apps Script editor:

/**
* Function to fetch calendar events and insert into active spreadsheet.
*/
function fetchAndInsertCalendarEvents() {

try {
const sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet();
const headers = ['Date of the event', 'Day of the week of the event', 'Title', 'Start Time of the
Events', 'End Time of the Events', 'Location of the Event'];
sheet.getRange('A1:F1').setValues([headers]);

const startDate = new Date(2023, 4, 29);


const endDate = new Date(2023, 5, 12);
const calendar = CalendarApp.getDefaultCalendar();
const events = calendar.getEvents(startDate, endDate);
const daysOfWeek = ['Sunday', 'Monday', 'Tuesday', 'Wednesday', 'Thursday', 'Friday',
'Saturday'];

for (let i = 0; i < events.length; i++) {


const event = events[i];
const date = event.getStartTime();
const dayOfWeek = daysOfWeek[date.getDay()];
const title = event.getTitle();
const startTime = Utilities.formatDate(event.getStartTime(), Session.getScriptTimeZone(),
'HH:mm');
const endTime = Utilities.formatDate(event.getEndTime(), Session.getScriptTimeZone(),
'HH:mm');
const location = event.getLocation() || 'N/A';
const rowData = [Utilities.formatDate(date, Session.getScriptTimeZone(), 'yyyy-MM-dd'),
dayOfWeek, title, startTime, endTime, location];
sheet.appendRow(rowData);
}
} catch (error) {
Logger.log(`Error: ${error}`);
