Setting up a new calendar in Thunderbird with the lightning extension installed seems relatively straight forward. (create new calendar, chose "on the web", select "caldav", ... ) However, the process then requires the URL / webaddress of the icloud calendar with which I seek to sync.

How do I find this?

What are the next steps in the process, including using 2-factor authentication and an app specific password generated via apple/icloud? Can I use the same app specific password I used for setting up icloud mail in Thunderbird ? or do I need a second app specific password?

Once all setup and working, can I switch off 2 factor authentication in icloud without harming the by then working sync process with icloud?

thanks for your help!

It looks like Apple makes it difficult.

Yes, this is the best solution I found out there as well. Works well. Pay attention to inverse the client ID and calendar ID when implementing the solution.
