This is a great feature that I love. But it appears to have been taken away when using "OneNote for Windows" (sometimes just called "OneNote") versus "OneNote 2016".

Does anyone know how to get it to work in OneNote for Windows?

MS has moved this functionality from Outlook to Onenote itself (I'm referring to the UWP version) - if you open a new page in the relevant section, you can select "Insert" / "Meeting details" and then chose the relevant meeting from the right hand side window. You can change the day (by default it displays today's date) and then Onenote will display the meetings from your Outlook calendar.

  It was always a part of OneNote ...the issue is that it's been removed from One for Windows. All you can do it add it the first time, you can't update the meeting details once it's been added to the OneNote page. Plus it doesn't give you the checkboxes to indicate if an invitee actually attended the meeting.

    I miss this functionality too but I guess they focus on other stuff with OneNote for Windows 10 and also with the complexity of moving to Teams I wonder if we will see this functionality in OneNote for Windows 10 itself or if it will be a part of Teams.
