Cannot schedule MS Teams meeting from Outlook calendar

Copper Contributor

I wonder if you can help on this seemingly quite common issue?

 

Problem: I cannot schedule an MS Team meeting from the Outlook calendar. It immediately returns "We cannot schedule the meeting. Please try again later".

 

Environment: Windows 10 Pro, 365 Business Standard, standalone PC (small business) with two users: business and personal. 365 account is under business email.

 

I can schedule a meeting invite directly from MS Teams, so that works.

I have installed the MS Teams Add-In into Outlook. The MS Teams option appears in the Outlook banner. (Kaspersky Security initially disabled the MS Teams Add-In for Outlook but I have reactivated it).

 

Any ideas?

 

Thanks,

Craig

Hi!
Check and make sure you are logged in to your main account (as in outlook) so you’re not in a guest tenant etc..

Otherwise try close both apps, start Teams and then outlook and try again

Thank you Adam. Sadly that hasn't solved it, but you may be on the right lines.

 

This 365 installation has been through a slightly complex evolution.

1. Originally I had 365 Home, registered to me personally. (MS renamed this product as 365 Family).

2. Started using MS Team by invitation from a client. I could accept meetings but not arrange them. I logged in under their corporate ID.

3. Then I decided to buy a 365 Business subscription, 365 Business Standard because of the benefits that MS Teams offers.

 

I am able to use Teams, by invitation from someone else, and can create a meeting direct from MS Teams, but cannot initiate from Outlook calendar.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Office 365 and MS Team, but the problem persists.

@Craig_Powers I have exactly the same issue, it was working prior to upgrading to the Office365. I run a Windows10 machine, is there an issue with the MSTeams Meeting invite link in Outlook not working due to the Windows 10.

 

PS I am using the right account in both Outlook and MSTeams.

I have cleared the MSTeams Cashe and restarted.. 

 

No joy, please help.
