How do you obtain the URL for a particular Apple Calendar used on a local machine?

I am attempting to integrate my Apple iCal calendar (just one of the calendars) to a popular desktop note taking app. The app is asking for the URL of the remote calendar. I've seen some VERY old (8+ year old) posts about finding the Apple Calendar URL, but obviously there have been lots of system updates since then and those are no longer accurate.

In my desktop calendar and in icloud, I have several "calendars" but I really only want the one that is labeled "Home", which contains the events going on with my family. How can I find out the URL to use for this particular calendar?

Thanks for your help in advance!

iMac Pro (2017)

Docs:

Basically, two-fingered or secondary- or control-click on the calendar and select share and publish the calendar, and then the two-fingered or secondary- or control-click gets the popup:

... And there's the way to get the URL you want.

Two-finger click on the calendar home

Select share calendar, then check public calendar

Then two-finger click again to get info or sharing settings for the URL

Thank you for your reply, but this does not work on my iMac or my MacBookPro. I do not get "share calendar". All I get is "sharing settings" that leads to nothing useful.

I don't know what you mean by "two-finger click". I tried a number of things on my iMac and MacBookPro by opening the iCal and doing various clicking on the "Home" calendar (I have several, but this is the one I need).
