Teams and Outlook Calendars
Hi RWAtechhelp,
there are two ways to add a shared Outlook calendar to Microsoft Teams (for that you need to have a Team and a channel created for all users):
Using the Channel Calendar app
- Go to the Teams channel where you want to add the calendar.
- Click the + button at the top of the channel to add a new tab.
- Select Apps and then search for "Channel Calendar."
- Click the Add button to add the app to the channel.
- In the Channel Calendar app, click the Add calendar button.
- Select From directory and then select the shared Outlook calendar that you want to add.
- Click Add.
Using a website tab
- Go to the Teams channel where you want to add the calendar.
- Click the + button at the top of the channel to add a new tab.
- Select Website as the tab type.
- Enter a name for the tab, such as "Events Calendar," and paste the URL for your organization's shared calendar into the URL field.
- Click Save.
To find the URL for your shared Outlook calendar, follow these steps:
- Open Outlook and go to the Calendar view.
- Right-click on the shared calendar that you want to add to Teams.
- Select Share and then Calendar Permissions.
- Click the Copy link button and paste the link into the URL field in Teams.

5. In the Channel Calendar app, click the Add calendar button.
This button/option/setting doesn't seem to be in my instance of the channel calendar
Can you be more explicit for where it should be ?
Thanks

fatherosam Yep! That sounds like a made up ChatGPT answer. There is no such option. Must love the internet 🙂
