Outlook O365 - Calendar - Events from Email - missing
According to this thread https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Change-Alerts/Events-from-Email-now-showing-up-in-Calendars/m-p/14373#M243 the 'Events from Email' would be available in Office 365 (though not specifically mentioned in the conversation , the thread is tagged with Office365).
We still don't see these options in our Calendars.
What do we need to do to get them?
Why is there no other way to do create a calendar event from an email message? This seems like functionality that's been around a long time. We can do it in the desktop client.
Hi Diane Kennedy , you can create a calendar event from an email in OWA by using the 'Reply to all by Meeting' option. For more details check this link > https://www.slipstick.com/office-365/outlook-web/create-appointment-email-outlook-web/
Thanks! I saw this but was hoping for something a little more elegant or simple. I looked for a Flow option, too, but no luck. I wish the "Suggested Meetings" feature worked more consistently; I have the same problem with this feature in Gmail.
They might have been disabled by admin. Check via PowerShell, if you can:
[20:01:27][Login script]# Get-MailboxCalendarConfiguration vasil | fl *from* EventsFromEmailEnabled : True EventsFromEmailDelegateChecked : True EventsFromEmailShadowMailboxChecked : False ReportEventsCreatedFromEmailEnabled : True CreateEventsFromEmailAsPrivate : True FlightEventsFromEmailEnabled : True DiningEventsFromEmailEnabled : True HotelEventsFromEmailEnabled : True RentalCarEventsFromEmailEnabled : True EntertainmentEventsFromEmailEnabled : True PackageDeliveryEventsFromEmailEnabled : True InvoiceEventsFromEmailEnabled : True
We see the option in our Office 365. We are signed up as a first release customer though (Admin > Settings> Organization Profile). Actually looking for a way to not make it so sensitive... Our travel approval tool (Concur) sends an approver an email with the flight information, so the approver ends up getting all of the trip information ADDED TO THEIR CALENDAR!
