I'd suggest to use function "org-agenda-write". You can export 
your agenda views to org files too! However, the formatting will 
be different. Probably something like:

* Event A
  SCHEDULED: <2020-12-03 Thu 10:00-12:00>
* Event B
  SCHEDULED: <2020-12-03 Thu 10:00-11:00>
* Event C
  SCHEDULED: <2020-12-03 Thu 14:00-15:30>
* Event D
  SCHEDULED: <2020-12-03 Thu 20:00-21:30>

I personally do this to generate separate org-file and then 
generate ics file based on that and upload this ics file through 
WebDAV to my calendar server.
