manos1976, did you ever get resolution for this? I have the same question, but it looks like the thread dropped about a week ago.

Currently, I am syncing Google Calendar with Outlook very successfully.

However, those same Google Calendar entries that are syncing to Outlook do not pull into Teams from Outlook, at least not automatically. Like you, I'm thinking there must be a setting I'm missing somewhere. Plus, we are VERY new to Teams, so admittedly, the learning curve is steep for now.

If you found a solution Google Calendar/Outlook Calendar/Teams Calendar sync, can you please share? Thank you!

Update: I finally gave in and just moved everything from Google calendar to Outlook/MS 365. To move calendar items from the GoogleSphere into the MS 365sphere was less of a headache than trying to figure out why Teams couldn't see Google calendar. I don't normally give up easily, but after a few days of research, it seemed like an uphill battle that required too much time + energy to fight. Good luck to everyone searching for the workaround/solution!!! I have mad respect for your tenacity! 🙂

    I confronted the same problem too and my MS Teams account i guess it a university account. I think i solved the issue at least on the meeting that i myself schedule by adding attendee by typing my Gmail that associated with my GCalendar and tada the meeting invitation show up on my GCalendar. I hope this help.

      MSIzet thanks for the response.  I think what you are saying is that your MS account username (e.g. mailto:msizet@domain.com) is different to your Gmail account (e.g. mailto:msizet@gmail.com).  If so then that's not quite the situation we are discussing here, where we want the usernames to be the same.  It is however true that you can invite Gmail users to Teams meetings, I am attending a growing number, but only if the accounts are in different domains.

       

      Thanks,

      Mark 🙂
