Gyroscope L3GD20 on STM32-F411E Discovery Board

[gammmmmm]

Hey,
I'm trying to print the data from the gyroscope L3GD20 of the STM32-F411E Discovery board ( Board Ref:MB1115B) using stm32CubeIDE.
Is there a library I can use for the gyroscope, Or does any one can guide me through creating the project as it is the first time I'm doing this.
Thanks !

It seems the L3GD20  is obsolete:

 

But, on the 'Documentation' tab, you can still find the datasheet and some Application Notes:

It seems there is still support in the C-Driver-MEMS package:

In CubeF4, you will find BSP to the 'F411 Disco board including for the gyroscope; that in turn uses the L3GD20 BSP.

In my downloaded CubeF4 rev.1.24 package there's a BSP subdirectory in the Examples using among other things the gyro. I don't know why is it not present in the github version, maybe you can try to find it in your version which should be part of CubeIDE (I don't use CubeIDE), or in the downloadable zip.

I have found the necessary libraries in the cubeF4 packages,
