Connecting and synchronizing calendars across Microsoft Teams and other services like Outlook
Dear Tami Kaido,
Welcome to Microsoft Q&A.
Microsoft Teams does not have a standalone calendar feature inside the app. Instead, it integrates with Microsoft 365 Group calendars (via Outlook) or SharePoint calendars. Here’s how you can create a shared calendar
Step 1: Open Microsoft Teams
- Launch the Teams desktop app or web app.
- Sign in with your Microsoft 365 account.
Step 2: Select the Team and Channel
- In the left navigation pane, choose the Team where you want the shared calendar.
- Select the Channel where the calendar will be added.
- You also can Create team and add the members who need access.
Step 3: Add the Channel Calendar App
- At the top of the channel, click the “+” (Add a tab) button
- In the app list, search for Channel Calendar.
- Click Add.
Step 4: Configure the Calendar
- Give the calendar a name (e.g., “Team Schedule”).
- Click Save.
The calendar tab will now appear in your channel.
Step 5: Share and Edit
- All members of the channel can view, add events in this calendar.
- Events created here will also appear in the Team’s group calendar in Outlook.
Step 6: Optional Notify Members
- Post a message in the channel to let everyone know the calendar is ready.
