Enhancements to O365 Groups Calendar in Outlook - Never miss an event sent to a group.
- Jan 26, 2017
Ivan54 - It is unlikely since we are just beggining the rollout of this feature to have impacted what you are saying. Also, when a group event is created in O365 group, currently, only the users who have subscribed to messages from that group would get that in their Inbox and it would show up in their calendar. In other words, unless the calendar invite lands somewhere in the user mailbox, it wouldnt show up in their calendar. Is it possible that the members are subscribed to the messages and may have missed the invite or it went to another folder?
I'll chime in here to echo a request many others have made. PLEASE give a way to turn off Meeting forwarding at the Group level. For large Groups, attempting to get all users in the group to go into the Outlook webapp and go to setting to unsubscribe is not a scaleable solution.
We use a workflow where to share out-of-office information, users will put a meeting on their own calendar, then add the Group calendars invitees to the meeting in order to populate those groups. Trying to get all users to individually turn off their subscriptions is very difficult and error prone. This is really something that should be able to be set for the whole group in one place.
The new Outlook on the web now gives a option to enable/disable messages to all members.

Ingrid Schiele I would love to know where that is - I haven't been able to find that setting. Can you point me in the right direction?
