Important Notes

• Connecting an Outlook calendar does not automatically link Microsoft Teams. To connect Teams, navigate to Calendar Connections > Video Conferencing and connect it separately.

• To view appointments on your Outlook calendar, ensure that your desired Outlook calendar is both connected and selected as the linked calendar. You can do this under Calendar Connections > Calendars.

Limitations with Microsoft Teams Integration

• Only Microsoft Teams accounts for Work and School (Organisation and Education) are eligible for integration.

• Each user can connect only one Microsoft Teams integration per subaccount.

• The same Microsoft Teams integration can be used across multiple subaccounts, but only for the same user. For example, if User A has connected their Microsoft Teams integration in Subaccount A, then only User A can connect that same integration to Subaccount B.
