Viewing other team members Calendars in Teams

Unfortunately, not currently possible. There has been a lot of demand for this. Microsoft is working on it and overhauling the calendar functionality per uservoice

They are also working on adding Office 365 Group Calendars to Teams
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/16933204-include-office-365-group-calendar-in-teams
There is a workaround to this in terms of opening the associated Office 365 Group Calendar via a SharePoint Tab in the Team
https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Teams/Sharing-a-Teams-Calendar/m-p/359601
So you could use the Office 365 Group mailbox as a workaround here and have users book in that calendar when booking appointments: however this would be manual and, of course, liable to error or missed appointments. To natively see others shared calendars within the calendars tab alongside yours - Microsoft have only confirmed they are working on it per the uservoice, so could be some time until we see this surface. Nothing was mentioned previously at Ignite in November so we'll have to wait and see
I would personally love to see this functionality
Hope that answers your question
Best, Chris

There’s also a custom app that does this somewhere on the internet 🙂 I’ll see if I can find it

I wouldn't resort to a third party app, which probably costs, in order to do something which ought to be native in the product and to which they are currently working on 😄
- arihazraSep 23, 2020Copper ContributorI agree. Third party wont be allowed in my organization's IT infrastructure
- Dec 17, 2019Agree, but it’s a custom app, free to add to the AppStore! Tried this out a while ago
