Store Google Calendar events in your Google Drive folder

This automation allows users to automatically export events from a Google Calendar account to a designated folder in their Google Drive.

This integration is designed to provide a convenient backup solution for Google Calendar users, ensuring their event data is securely stored in their Google Drive storage.
