I agree - whilst this solution did work for me and Focus Time now shows in a different colour it feels like a work around rather than a solution. The removal of categories from the standard functionality feels like a step backwards in what Viva Insights offers.

As others have mentioned, this works for Outlook but not Teams or other apps that show the calendar. It would be nice to be able to set a category of our choosing when these events are created. Previously the Green Category was used, now no category is set. This is a step in the wrong direction for those of us trying to effectively manage our calendars and utilize this Insights feature. Please at least add back the Green Category rather than forcing us to use Conditional formatting.

The Conditional Formatting feature isn't available on the Outlook client for Mac, nor does it seem to be available in the web version. For me this does not resolve the issue.

Very good point. Only changed for me on the outlook app, but for example in teams colour remained blue.....
So I take it back what I said, it didn't resolve the issue
