calendar missing in teams
- Apr 20, 2021
Let me sum up this thread for people just joining now. If the calendar app is missing from the left of Teams there are two possible reasons
1. (Most Likely) - Teams can not find or access your calendar. It will only access a calendar from the exchange mailbox associated with the users account, if you don't have one, then no calendar. Also if you use Exchange hosted on-premises you will need to have hybrid configured to allow Teams to access that mailbox.

2. (Less Likely) - Someone removed Calendar in an app setup policy assigned to that user. This will hide it from the left menu but it will still be there if you press the ... Menu at the bottom. See Manage app setup policies in Microsoft Teams - Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Docs
I am having the same issue. However I am totally new to teams & o365.
I have registered for the free teams version for our small company, and I don't get the calendar button, and thus cannot create recurring meetings and all that.
Question: Is this generally not supported by the free teams version, thus I would need to purchase a valid o365 license in addition?
[edit] so basically what I want to achieve is to set up recurring meetings where people can just join using a fixed link or (even better) the calender in teams, without me having to actively invite people upon every new meeting date.

I think it depends on the type of "free" Teams license you are using. There is an E1 license that I would bet has the Calendar on the left-hand side, but "Teams Free" or the "Feemium version of Teams" would only have something like "Meeting" on the left-hand side. So the question is: what license do you have?

DavidMitchell190Ok so I definitely have no trial license of office365, just the free teams version. also don't want to get a license for the full office since I don't need the rest of the suite.
