    Yeah, do that! I haven’t heard anyone else so far! I’d also check the message center in the admin portal and see if there are any disruptions

We have the same email address in Teams and Outlook so I am guessing that the Teams account is added to outlook.

Can you explain in more detail if there is anything we gotta do in outlook?

    I found that outlook could not create teams meetings resulting in this error message without an account configured in exchange. Once I created the exchange account it worked fine but generated a bunch more complexity connecting the exchange email account mailto:xyz@abc.onmicrosoft.com with the locally hosted email mailto:xyz@abc. I think I would have to move my email domain to Microsoft to eliminate this so I'll just use another collaboration app instead - simple

    Hi, Ronak Agarwal 

    Really exist a restriction in use the same calender.

    In my case I've two accounts in my outlook email_1:@mycompany and email_2:@hotmail.com. When I'd set email_1 in both not work, but when I'd set email_2 it's worked well. However just in the email_2 calender.    I don't see problem about that because I just Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V team link in the correct invite.

      Another observation is that Teams should be necessarily open before Outlook for correct sinc.

        Zoom plugin - no problem, GoToMeeting plugin - no problem. TeamViewer plugin - no problem.  Microsoft Teams plugin - NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS!!!  Microsoft is "supposed" to be one of the top software companies in the world  yet can't get a simple plugin to just install.  IT staff have to spend days or weeks searching the internet for solutions and all these tricky procedures just for an Outlook plugin.  Do anyone at Microsoft understand how ridiculous this is???  We should just be able to run the setup and move on with life!

    @ I know this sounds too simplistic and stupid, but I have had the same problem on multiple occasions forever. Today, I just shut down Teams and Outlook and restarted, meeting invitation worked fine, as it should.

      Howard1217 We have tried this but it seems it did not work for us!

      Our users are connected from home using proxy. maybe that is something which is causing the issue.
