Teams status does not reflect availability
All calendar entries are visible within the Teams calendar, but unfortunately the Teams status does not reflect availability (free/busy status). I thought if there is an appointment in my Outlook...

Did you ever get a definitive answer on this?
Mine seems to work find and does reflect when I am busy in the calendar, when I am out of office etc, nut 2 anomalies -
1. I can never get my status to show "In a meeting" - only Busy it in a call
2. When I am Out of Office it makes me available
Anyone else had any issues?

Try clicking your profile pic, then the status drop-down menu, then "Reset Status."

The suggestion did not work for me. The issue is with the flexibility that Outlook calendar events have to schedule an appointment on you calendar and then add a quality to that like, free, busy, etc. Teams see all appointments as unavailable and then you show with a red dot. Even for calendar events that are informative for your team or organization, like, Working Remotely. I would to see my status for this appointment on Teams as free, that is how I created the appointment in Outlook. That is the issue.
