Hello
I'm running node red on a cerbo gx (running on Venus OS) device and I'm trying to setup a google calendar node. At the moment I have everything configured in the google cloud (created app, enabled API, got the credentials) but 1 last thing I have to do is " You will need to edit your [hosts file](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_(file)) and add an entry for [node-red.example.com](http://node-red.example.com) that points to 192.168.1.139"
Now is the question, how do I do this correctly?
Thanks in advance 😉

That isn't a node-red question, but taken at face value then you need to edit the file `\etc\hosts` and add a line containing
`192.168.1.139 node-red.example.com`
