Invite a channel-calendar from/via outlook invitation?!
I...
- invited the channel email in my outlook invitation
- invited the teams-group email
- checked some sharepoint settings
- etc.
but nothing helped. I didn't found any new meeting block in the channel-calender.
Only the option one-way to organize it in teams, send it to outlook and forwarding it to other people was really successful.
Last chance, due to very less time in the next days is to ask you (my #digitalcollaboration network) now. Do you got a tool hack in your pocket😉?
- Hello, you can only schedule a channel meeting using Teams, it's not currently possible with Outlook. The Channel Calendar App is only part of the current channel being a filtered view of the group mailbox. Meaning it will show all the meeting in that particular channel in a calendar view. You can add a channel calendar to all your channels.

- I fully agree with this request here and we are needing the same solution. Such a feature would be extremely useful. We want on the channel have a calendar and people can invite this "calendar" just as well as other persons. (We not want to force persons to change their way of working. They are used to schedule all their meetings with outlook, so do NOT force them to schedule meetings that should turn up on this calendar in a different way!)
Where can we officially create a feature request and up-vote it? I think you can try my way:
background is : team is actually "account"
1, find your team email addr. in azure portal/TAC, it should like teamname "with number(if duplicated)"@onmicrosoft.com
2, change email to visible in exchange(by default every team email addr. is invisible for user in exchange"
3, then you can add its calendar in outlook
I will stop from here as it's too far from what MS wants: use Teams- for step 2, where is this setting changed? is it in Azure?
- kind of.
need to change it with exchange privilege, like exchange administrator

ChristianJBergstromHave there been any updates in the last 3 years that you are aware of? I need to take invites from a shared outlook mailbox and add them to a Teams Channel calendar.
- Hello, pls check again.
I want to invite the channel calender. If I invite the email adress from the team it isnt working... ChristianJBergstrom We are really trying to leverage teams with our local and remote users and have a need to have one place to go for all general information for the team. We have a channel for this with it's own calendar and it would be extremely useful for users to be able to schedule "meetings" with the channel calendar to show when they will be out-of-office. So this is a big limitation of channel calendars for us.
