How can I edit sidebar links that are added with api.addCommunitySectionLink?

only if you’re overwriting the component/plugin directly… if you want to change the order in the existing section, it’s probably easiest to reorder with CSS

#sidebar-section-content-community {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  
  li {
    order: 2
  }
  
  [data-list-item-name="upcoming-events"] {
    order: 1
  }
}

If you want to move the item to the “more” drawer, hide the original and duplicate it in a separate component:

#sidebar-section-content-community {
  [data-list-item-name="upcoming-events"] {
    display: none;
  }
}

import { apiInitializer } from "discourse/lib/api";
import { i18n } from "discourse-i18n";

export default apiInitializer((api) => {
  const siteSettings = api.container.lookup("service:site-settings");
  if (
    siteSettings.discourse_post_event_enabled &&
    siteSettings.sidebar_show_upcoming_events
  ) {
    api.addCommunitySectionLink(
      {
        name: "custom-upcoming-events",
        route: "discourse-post-event-upcoming-events",
        text: i18n("discourse_post_event.upcoming_events.title"),
        title: i18n("discourse_post_event.upcoming_events.title"),
        icon: "calendar-days",
      },
      true,
    );
  }
});
