Add an EVENT to Channel Calendar
- Apr 16, 2021
ChrizK Hello, just to put it out there it's a highly requested feature being worked on https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/16933204-include-office-365-group-calendar-in-teams
As for the channel calendar it's only a calendar for channel meetings that have been scheduled in that team in that channel.
You would have to use the Outlook client to create an appointment and not a meeting, but unfortunately not possible to schedule in channels from Outlook today.
Hi Community,
I am struggling to accept that MS have implemented a 'so called calendar', which can only add meetings. The whole concept of a calendar is event based (only an electronic calendar can have the addition of meetings).
Being the fundamental use of a calendar, I would appreciate a Teams Guru answering, even if it is just to categorically say, "Nope, it only allows meetings".
It appears that the O365 Group Calendar (aka, Team) appears to be used by all the channels. I am wondering if MS has implemented a poorly constructed solution, by perhaps (re)using the Group Calendar Events as Channel Meetings (could explain 'Add new event'), resulting in actual Events being blocked (used for another purpose) ... which makes no sense to me ...
