- RathoreShaktiCopper ContributorTo sync a SharePoint custom list with a Calendar view to Outlook calendars, you can use the "Connect to Outlook" feature. Here's how you can achieve this: Connect SharePoint Calendar to Outlook: - Open the SharePoint calendar you want to connect. - Click the Calendar tab at the top left of the screen and select the "Connect to Outlook" option from the ribbon. - Follow the prompts to establish the connection between your SharePoint calendar and Outlook. - Once connected, you can manage and view the SharePoint calendar directly from Outlook.

RathoreShakti this will only work if i have a calendar list not a custom list. in my case i do not have a calendar list i have a custom list with calendar view
Hello johnjohn-Peter
not per default, but you can create a Power Automate Flow like this: https://adoption.microsoft.com/en-us/sample-solution-gallery/?keyword=ics&sort-by=updateDateTime-true&page=1?WT.mc_id=DX-MVP-5004845
As background. You have "only" a custom list. The default Events list is an SharePoitn list too, but they have an action to create an ics invitation:
When you use a groups connected team site, then you have an Exchange calendar in there to sync the entries:
