Meetings set up with teams email not showing on calendar
AGodbolt Senfer, just tried it myself.
Went to the Calendar inside the Teams app, created a new weekly reoccurring meeting with 1 person (external) added. Saved it and it was visible in Teams.
Checked outlook, and it was visible as well.
Can you let me know the setup you are using for Outlook, is your mailbox hosted in Office365 or on-prem?
Mitchell Bakker Hey Mitchell, thanks for the response. We're through 365. Just so we're clear, this was absolutely a one off, not the norm. I set up meetings both originating in Teams and originating in Outlook all the time and I've had no problem. It's just this one occurrence, which I do think I created within the Teams calendar, that had this error. All of my attendees received and accepted, and they even provided the screenshot showing that I was also on the meeting (which...I created it so...I had to be) but...it just wouldn't show on my calendar which meant I couldn't add new members nor edit the meeting.
In the end, I had to ask that everyone decline and delete the old invite and I created a new one with no problem. Hopefully what causes the issue can be found and resolved though I understand through my work in software that these types of potentially extremely rare bugs can be very hard to nail down due to all the variables.
Thanks again for the time taken to reply!

I am having issues with teams and the calendar. Regardless if I schedule a Live Event, or a Webinar the "event" does not get published/sent to the recipient/attendee of the webinar/event.
Example - I would expect that if I created a "Live Event" and invited 5 presenters to speak at such live event that all 5 speakers would receive an email confirmation with a calendar invite for the event. This did not happen.
As such, if I invited any attendees to the same live event they too would receive a calendar invite to named live event. This did not happen.
Also - my organization uses gmail. I access my gmail through outlook. I would like my teams calendar to sync with my gmail/outlook. How can we make this happen.

Hello SweetT1970 With a Teams Live Event, there wouldn't be an invitation sent to your attendees unless you manually send them an email (or post it in a channel) with the attendee link. Once you've set up your meeting with your presenters and you as the organizer, you would see a new window where you click to "get attendee link"

ThereseSolimeno thank you for the response on "live events". I am still not seeing any correspondence on webinars either.
I am in the process of trying to link my calendar within "teams" by adding my public calendar url as a "website add on". We will see how that works, but still no calendar requests generated for webinar guests.
