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.
ChrizK Did anyone ever find a resolution to this? I have the same issue, want to just create a calendar of upcoming events, awareness days etc and colour code them, but I'm only being given the option to create a meeting, not an event. We used to have a calendar on a teams channel in the past where this was possible, but that channel has been deleted.

niamhb1430 Sorry, I don't think Microsoft really take much notice of the community. You are often directed to raise a feature request, in the hope that enough people have the same requirement and up-vote you.
It makes sense to evaluate some bespoke ideas, but in my opinion, it is just a lazy way of not accepting product ownership and responsibility.
This particular feature is so obvious, it doesn't need evaluating, as it should be core/fundamental. Shame nobody at MS has any pride in their products to make them better (or the organisation does not empower them).
