Yes, this is a known issue, i.e. when a user tries to use FindTime add-in to schedule a poll, they may run into this error/issue. FindTime engineering team is looking into it for resolution. A service incident (EX521435) has been published for impacted tenants, see below for details, if you haven't seen it yet in your M365 Admin center. Workaround is to use Scheduling poll feature in OWA.Update: This issue has been fixed.
EX521435: Exchange Online - Users can't schedule events in the Outlook desktop app using the FindTime add-inImpacted users get an error that states, "Sorry! FindTime could not load due to an unexpected error. Please try again." or "Sorry, we can't load the add-in". While we're working to remediate impact, affected users with access to Outlook on the web can use the Scheduling Poll feature to schedule meetings. See: Scheduling Poll articles - Microsoft Support for more info and share these with your users.
Current status: We're reviewing additional information, including the status of authentication components which facilitate user access to the add-in, conditional access policies related to FindTime add-in subscriptions and collecting additional service logs for further insight into how impact manifests to assist our investigation.
AmirHaque-MSFT Thank you for the reply.
I am a little confused. This is not a feature request.
it is functionality that already exists. It is a was working for the past year - and is not working correctly now. The schedule button is already there and when I click on it, it doesn’t send a meting invite for the selected time.
I just found that if I click to view all of my polls from the Outlook widget, then the functionality works. However, if I click to view my polls with an a browser, then it doesn’t seem to work.

AmirHaque-MSFT I am sorry about that. I am an idiot and didn't see that your response was to someone else. My bad!!
I think it may be a browser issue. When testing (opening the links) in Opera, it does not work correctly. However, testing in other browsers seems to work okay. So I will keep an eye on this and see if I can find specific steps causing issues.
