Integrating tasks schedules into Teams sharepoint calendar

Hi

I have a Teams that has its own calendar so that the members can see upcoming meeting etc. I created it in sharepoint using the calendar app. The calendar is displayed in the Teams on a separate tab (I added it to the Teams as a website tab)

 

Withing the Team (which comprises mostly of external guests) we collaborate and have common tasks  / common deadlines. For these I have created a separate tab using Tasks by Planner and To Do. The task deadlines are shown in a calendar view on the tab's schedule view.

 

Is there a way to integrate the task deadlines automatically into the Teams' own shared sharepoint calendar, so Team members do not need to check two calendars?

    Hi Jani73, you could try to use Microsoft Flow for this. In Flow you can find a template for adding newly Planner Tasks to an Excel Spreadsheet. So, I assume it should be possible to create a new entry in your SharePoint calendar, too.

    Just open https://flow.microsoft.com, login with your account, create a new Flow and search for Planner. You should find the template and customize it to fit to your needs.
