Boards have disappeared for the latest version of Outlook Preview

I've been running the Outlook Preview for a while and loved the ability to create free-style 'Boards'. But when I updated yesterday, the board disappeared. Any idea why?  I can't see the board I crea...

jbucarion Damm, its really bad decision. I was love using it!

I am still able to see board option in online version https://outlook.office.com/ but It got removed from app version. 

 

devBarry  For online version you can navigate to https://outlook.office.com/ -> Calender -> View

Here you can see your board.

I am guessing they removed from new Outlook as they are in preview and dont want feature confusion, but online will be gone by 6/26.

I liked the boards as I prefer my calendar to show the next 7 days, and new Outlook does not support that.

    I did not see it in the new Outlook. Do I think it's gone, gone. You can still download the data from boards in the settings.

    The latest version actually does! Under "Day" view in the Calendar tab there's now a dropdown, of which you can pick the next 7 days 🙂

      That must have just been added recently. Yeah. I wish they would give us a list of features/changes when they release updates so we don't have to keep poking around to see what changed.

        The Calendar Board was released two years ago for OWA.  It was my first YouTube video. :cryingwithlaughter: I have been using this feature since day one.

        BTW: If you are interested in New Outlook features demo, check out these videos. I will continue to create more videos on this topic as new features are rolled out. 

        My favorite line is, "So Stay Connected!" :stareyes:

    Ah yes.. the classic give a really good feature, then take it away as people find your program to actually be usable. Big brain thinkers over here at Microsoft, I'm telling you.

    The only thing that is confusing is that they removed it haha, I was using it every day, helped me connect things that are to this day separated between platforms ;(
