I have a MS 365 subscription and also use the desktop versions of Outlook, Word, etc. In Outlook, specifically, I have three calendars set up (work, personal, this computer only). When I add anything to the desktop version for work or personal and "refresh" or send/receive - those newly created events disappear from Outlook and never make it to the Gmail side of things on the www.
However, when I am in my personal Gmail calendar on the www and add an event, it syncs perfectly and shows up in my desktop version of Outlook.
How can I get it to work both ways?

@Terrapin6908 Jumping into this question, hoping you have an idea. Similar to the original question, I'm using Outlook desktop with Office365 for work. To separate my personal and work calendars, I created a calendar on the Google/Gmail site and followed the steps to link the Gmail/Google calendar as an "Other Calendar" in Outlook desktop (shows as "Personal"), but it only syncs in one direction, from Google to Outlook desktop, not vice versa. When I add an event in my Personal calendar on Outlook desktop, the event shows up correctly, but does not sync out to Google.
This is only a problem on Outlook desktop; Outlook Web syncs properly -- an event created in the Personal calendar correctly shows up on both GMail/Google calendar and Outlook desktop.
iPhone calendar also works correctly - an event created on the Personal calendar shows up correctly in GMail/Google and Outlook calendars both online and on Outlook desktop.
It's somewhat of a drag to remember to have to keep Gmail open in a browser (or Outlook Web) just to properly schedule a personal event.
Any thoughts?
