New Outlook: RSVP CC Option Missing?

Copper Contributor

I just flipped the switch to enable the New Outlook and then received some meeting requests.  In responding to an invitation, I can't see how to cc other people (for example, send a copy to my boss or a colleague so they know I will be attending, without having to send a message to all meeting participants). 

 

Is there a way to do this in the new interface and I'm just not seeing it?  This is standard policy in our company, so if I can't do it I will have to revert to the old version of Outlook.

 

Thanks in advance.

@Keokimon - I've had the same issue in testing New Outlook client and OWA for the last year or more. I do hope it is a feature that returns as we use it often. 

@Keokimon@Chris Burnum ,

 

You are accurate in your observation. The cc field is not available in meeting invites in New Outlook. As a workaround, you can Forward your invite as an attachment. This method prevents the recipient from receiving a meeting invite but has the meeting details.

 I am unsure if your recommended functionality is on Microsoft's radar. I suggest you give Microsoft feedback explaining your workflow so they can better understand how this feature can benefit you and other users.
