Here’s how:

1. Go to https://script.google.com/home
2. New Project
3. Add Calendar API under "Services"
4. Copy/Paste code and run
5. Add a Trigger of type “Calendar” (more below)

How to create a Trigger:

In the Script editor, click the "Triggers" icon (it looks like a clock).

Click "Add Trigger" in the bottom right corner.

Configure the trigger with these settings:

• Choose which function to run: Select the function (checkForNewEvents)
• Choose which deployment should run: Head
• Events: Choose "From calendar"
• Which event: Choose "On event update"
• Calendar to watch: Select the specific calendar you want to monitor for updates
• Failure notification settings: (Optional) Configure how you want to be notified if the script fails Click "Save"
