HEBEVENTS returns diaspora event only
When calling the GoogleSheets HEBEVENTS function with the date of May 27th (2023) the result is "Shavuot II", though in Israel this is a regular "Parashat Naso".
I think we better have another parameter saying whether the client needs Israel or diaspora events.
Thank you so much for this service!!
It is unbelievable how useful and helpful it is, for so many Jews around the world.
חזקו ואימצו
Hi, shavua tov. The Hebrew Date Converter Google sheets Add-on was built by an independent organization called YML Solutions.
https://workspace.google.com/marketplace/app/hebrew_date_converter/70892373699
This plugin uses the Hebcal APIs but otherwise we aren't affiliated with their product. You will need to contact them directly to ask them to make the change to add an optional Israel boolean parameter to their function.
We are truly sorry we can't help further with this issue.

Reading dates for the Five Megillot
The Eicha (Book of Lamentations) reading is coming up on Tisha B'Av Saturday night August 6, 2022 following Shabbat.
Michael, could you kindly include a csv (ranging years 5780 to 5793) for the Five Megillot which contains reading dates for Book of Lamentations (Eicha - Tisha B'Av), Book of Esther (Purim), Song of Songs (Sabbath of Passover), Book of Ruth (Shavuot), and Ecclesiastes (Sukkot)
Are these books read in their entirety or are only some of their chapters read?
sephardi torah/haftarah readings
Sephardi readings are often different. For instance, on Shabbat Pesach I, we read an additional verse (Joshua 6.27) at the end of the standard reading.
HebCal does not show these differences. Which makes it an unreliable resource for sephardim. Which is a shame - as it's fixable. It would be great if you fixed it! Then you'd have a resource for all of Am Yisrael.

Javascript to export to a text file
The header says it all. I need to run a script to download and write the result to a textfile.
Try this API. This is the best we can offer. Good luck and Shabbat shalom!

Thanks!
If you return to the https://www.hebcal.com/yahrzeit page from the same web browser you used earlier, you should now see a page that lists your previously created calendars:
Then, click on an existing personal calendar link.
Near the bottom of the page, you'll see a green button that says "Add another name"
Fill out the new row and click the blue "Update Calendar" button at the bottom of the page.
