Automatic posting of Skype Meeting attendance in OneNote with imported Meeting Details
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.

OneNote for Windows is pretty much useless. You can still install OneNote 2016 on fresh builds and on updates. This attendance features is absolutely needed. I think people misunderstood my original issue. That is about half of our users have automated change from Accepted in Outlook to Joined in Skype when people actually join the meeting, the other half never get the Joined messaging. We've moved to Teams, and the integration still isn't working. This issue follows the user, not the device.

Daniel Hurst Have you figured out this feature change? I loved that feature, it's an amazingly simple, efficient way to capture attendees, and others who join.
We use Webex now and oddly enough the feature is missing. Do you know if that auto-check feature was limited to Skype meetings?
Thanks, Ralph
