Hello @dikshachoudhary - Please go to your table named Calendar and open the Advanced Editor. The first two lines in your script should look something like the script below.  In place of john.doe@abc.com you should see your email address.  If the table is not returning an error and you are seeing the columns but are not seeing any data in the columns, I would guess that the email address you have the source step is one that you have access to see (becuase an error is not being thrown) but it is not the one with your meetings.

let
    Source = Exchange.Contents("john.doe@abc.com"),
    Calendar1 = Source{[Name="Calendar"]}[Data],

 

Hello @jennratten  thanks for your reply!!
i've tried this way and its exactly same as it should be but still data is empty.

Hi - You will need to enter your Microsoft Exchange account as opposed to a gmail account.
