Adding a shared read-only Google Workspace Calendar to Thunderbird?

I'm looking for a way to add shared (read only) calendars from Google Calendar into thunderbird, but I have run into a dead-end. Thunderbird prompts for the calendar password (password of team-member who has shared the calendar) when adding via "on the network" method, so I am unable to complete the process. Google Workspace seemingly does not provide an iCal link option when looking at integration settings.

'Google Calendar Provider' has been a common solution I've seen suggested for similar problems, but recent reviews suggest the add-on has broken after the latest Thunderbird update.

Any other workarounds for this task? It would be sufficient even to write a script that listens for new events/updates from the shared calendar and re-create them in a Thunderbird calendar, but I haven't gotten into writing add-ons for Thunderbird just yet.

My understanding is that the calendar owner has to add you to the shared calendar:

then you have to add it to your 'Other calendars' on the Calendar website,

then when you add your calendars to TB, using your gmail address and password, the 'Other calendars' should be available to subscribe.
