how to delete completely a google calendar instance via goggle-apps-script?-CodePudding

I searched for the answer here (StackOverflow) but without success.

I need to delete an entire calendar in the Goggle Calendar via Google-apps-script. It is exactly what I need. Delete at once a Calendar and consequently all the events that were associated with this respective calendar. After that, My intent is to create a new Calendar from scratch having only the events that matter. My main goal is to synchronize all the appointments that exist in my system with the google calendar application. I think it is a direct way to reach there. I am open to new suggestions as well.
Any help on this subject will be hugely appreciated.

About the method for permanently deleting Calendar using Google Apps Script, there are 2 methods.

Pattern 1:

Uses Calendar Service (CalendarApp). The sample script is as follows.

function myFunction() {
  const calendarId = "###"; // Please set the calendar ID you want to delete.
  CalendarApp.getCalendarById(calendarId).deleteCalendar();
}

Pattern 2:

Uses Calendar API. The sample script is as follows. In this case, please enable Calendar API at Advanced Google services.

function myFunction() {
  const calendarId = "###"; // Please set the calendar ID you want to delete.
  Calendar.Calendars.remove(calendarId);
}

Note:

When this script is run, the calendar is permanently deleted. So please be careful about this. When you test this, please use a sample Calendar.
When the primary calendar is deleted, an error occurs. So, if you want to delete all events from the primary calendar, it is required to delete all events using a script instead of deleting the calendar. Please be careful about this.
When you want to delete a lot of events from a Calendar using Google Apps Script, this report might be useful. Ref
