4. Adjust sharing settings: In the "Settings and sharing" tab, you can customize the sharing settings for your calendar. You can choose to make it public, share it with specific individuals, or keep it private.
5. Share with specific individuals: To share your calendar with specific people, scroll down to the "Share with specific people" section. Enter the email addresses of the people you want to share the calendar with. You can also choose their permission level (e.g., "See only free/busy" or "Make changes to events").
