This article explains how to add a calendar hosted in Outlook Online to Microsoft Teams.
Prerequisite
You can only do this with calendars hosted by a user or shared mailbox in Outlook; public folder calendars are not compatible.
If the calendar you wish to add to Teams is associated with a shared mailbox, you will need to access the mailbox by following these steps. If you do not have access to the shared mailbox, please contact the Help Desk.
Publishing the Calendar
A calendar must be published before it can be added to Teams. To do this, please follow these steps:
1. Sign into Outlook online with your NKU account.
- If the calendar is located on a shared mailbox, open it via delegate access.
2. Click on the Settings icon in Outlook (it will be next to your profile picture).
3. In the Settings window, select Calendar, then select Shared calendars.
4. Under Publish a calendar, select the calendar you want to publish, assign the desired permission level, and press Publish.
5. After publishing the calendar, copy the URL for the HTML version of the calendar. You will need this URL for the next section.
Adding the Calendar to Microsoft Teams
After copying the URL, please follow these steps to add the calendar to Teams:
1. Open the desktop Teams app, and then press Teams.
2. On the Teams page, select the team you want to add the calendar to (you may need to press All teams at the top-left if another team opens automatically).
3. In the team’s page, select a channel you want the calendar to be added to.
