01Set up your spreadsheet headers

Map out the columns you want, such as event title, start time, and description.

02Open the Apps Script editor

Access the script editor from your spreadsheet's Extensions menu.

03Find your Calendar ID

Locate and copy the ID of the Google Calendar you want to pull events from.

04Paste the automation script

Add the code snippet and reference your calendar ID inside it.

05Set your date range parameters

Adjust the start and end date variables in the script to control which events get imported.

06Run and review

Execute the script, grant account permissions, and check your spreadsheet for the processed calendar events.
