Group Calendar
When a group is created in M365 with a Teams team, the group resources include a calendar. The group calendar is available in Outlook (both desktop and web). I cannot find a way to make it available ...
- Jun 10, 2021You didn't mention external people in your question. As you noticed they can't access the calendar. But something that is common that people do is creating a Group calendar web part https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/use-the-group-calendar-web-part-eaf3c04d-5699-48cb-8b5e-3caa887d51ce

Although I think we have this set up as well as it's going to get, we've just discovered a related problem.
External group members cannot add or modify calendar entries on the group calendar web part in SharePoint Online or in Teams (which is just a pointer to the SPO web part). The only way to add or modify events in that calendar is through Outlook, and the only group members who can see the group in their Outlook are internal users in the tenant organization.
Is that your understanding, too?

Yes, they can only view. I should have mentioned that to you.
- Mar 28, 2022Hey Tony, in this scenario it's just being added to the SP site so the externals already added can view it.
- computxMar 24, 2022Gold ContributorMaybe I missed it. Can I make this calendar available to external users via a hyperlink?
