I just created a Teams Meeting in a group in Outlook. Where do I find this in Teams?
For this event, there are no invitations going out but anyone is able to join. I can find the event if I go in to Outlook Calendar > Groups > groupname and then I can add the event to my calendar.
I'm not able to find this meeting in Teams though. If I want to instruct people to join the Teams meeting tomorrow, how would I do so?
I see that I can add a Channel Calendar but the meeting isn't there. On the other hand, in Outlook, I'm not able to create a Meeting for a Channel.
Anthony-123 Teams have multiple channels, but only one calendar, so to allow the Channel Calendar tab to work it filters the calendar to those meetings flagged as channel meetings in that channel. Channel meetings are created from with Teams, so will appear as a message in the Team, in the Channel Calendar, and in the group calendar.
- Anthony-123Iron ContributorOk, so I created a meeting in the Channel Calendar and that appeared in the Group in Outlook. But it didn't indicate the channel name in the meeting and I don't see a way to create the meeting in Outlook for a channel.

How do we do 'flag as channel meeting' part?
When I created a meeting in a Channel, without any required attendees, I received a notification in Outlook calendar.
When I created a meeting in Outlook, without any required attendees, no notification went out.
In this case, I prefer the second instance but I want this to be accessible directly in Teams.Anthony-123 Only Teams client can create channel meetings, the attribute used is not exposed in Outlook.
Users will only be notified if within outlook they have chosen to be notified of meetings for that Group/Team.
