The long GRB 230707B (Fermi GBM Final Real-time Localization: 
Fermi GBM team, GCN Circ. 34165; Swift/BAT-GUANO detection: 
DeLaunay et al., GCN Circ. 34169) triggered the CALET Gamma-ray
Burst Monitor (CGBM) at 18:46:18.95 UTC on 7 July 2023
(http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/flight/1372790743/index.html).
The burst signal was seen by all CGBM detectors.

The burst light curve shows a multi-peaked structure that starts
at T+1.0 sec, peaks at T+82.1 sec, and ends at T+108.1 sec.
The T90 and T50 durations measured by the SGM data are 94.6 +/- 1.6 sec
and 52.1 +/- 1.2 sec (40-1000 keV), respectively.

The ground-processed light curve is available at

http://cgbm.calet.jp/cgbm_trigger/ground/1372790743/

The CALET data used in this analysis are provided by
the Waseda CALET Operation Center located at Waseda University.
