👋🏽 Hello @seththeskier! Great suggestion.

I believe it's already possible to do this without having any new code changes (adding complexity). Since you want two calendars to be updated, and not copying two calendars into a third combined calendar, you'll need to run this code as two separate instances.

If you have a work account ([email protected]) and a personal account ([email protected]), you can share personal calendar with the work account, but only as "show busy/free". That way, the work account (app script) will not see titles. You'll be able to show them as "Busy" (or whatever you choose, in the script).

From your work account, share your work calendar with your personal account as full permissions/full details. The app script, running on your personal account, can copy the work calendar events in full detail.

Hope that helps.
