Hi All,
Just had the functionality to add a Calendar as a Tab to a Microsoft Team. We were hoping to use this to track days off (as all day 'free time' events with no attendees), and to schedule meetings that the Department can track, but doesn't necessarily require everyone to be invited. However, every time we add an event, it automatically sends an invite to everyone in the team, and posts the content in the Posts section of the team.
We looked at the Required Attendees, and no one was listed. Under the Scheduling Assistant, the only person listed under the Required Attendees is the user creating the invite. There is no one else in the team added. However, all teams members get an invite in their Outlook.
Is there a way to:
1. Schedule items into the Calendar where invites are not sent out?
2. Ways to limit the users that do get invites if we want to have smaller meetings?
3. Stop it from posting everything to the Posts chat? (similar to adding a tab where you can deselect the "post to this channel about the tab")
Thanks.

@randoman
Thank you for this. Just to confirm, does anyone receive an email from the creation, deletion or update for an event?

@randoman hi there, how do we use Outlook to then add the event to the group sharepoint calendar? When i try to do that, it is just normally creating events for outlook, not the calendar in sharepoint. There doesn't appear to be an option to choose that calendar, only adding a teams or zoom meeting. Whenever i add meetings for the new calendar, it still makes posts about it in the 'post' tab - is there a way to stop it from doing that?
