Moved from: https://community.st.com/t5/mems-sensors/gyroscope-l3gd20-on-stm32-f411e-discovery-board/m-p/742133#M24523 as this starts a new question:

 

Thanks for replying! @waclawek.jan @Andrew Neil 
I have found the necessary libraries in the cubeF4 packages, But i'm facing another problem.
I can't find the com port of the device on the device manager, I installed the stlink driver and It still doesnt appear.
I also tried to configure the usb peipheral as virtual COM but it still doesnt work.

Hey, it appears as STM32 STlink

They are two different things:

STLINK is seen in the list of USB devices, while Virtual comport is listed in Ports (COM & LPT).

This is an example with a NUCLEO board. Each function is listed separately.

So in your case the STLINK in that board doesn't feature VCP (Virtual CompPort). Need to use an external USB/UART like this one: https://2btrading.tn/accueil/1758-carte-convertisseur-cp2102-usb-vers-ttl-serial-uart-pour-arduino.html

Hope it helps.
