Important Notes
- Only Microsoft Teams accounts for Work and School are eligible for integration.
- Connecting an Outlook calendar does not automatically link Microsoft Teams. You need to connect teams under video conferencing separately.
- To view appointments on your Outlook calendar, ensure that your desired Outlook calendar is both connected and selected as the linked calendar.
- Each user can connect only one Microsoft Teams integration per subaccount.
- The same Microsoft Teams integration can be used across multiple accounts, but only for the same user. For example, if User A has connected their Microsoft Teams integration in Account A, then only User A can connect that same integration to Account B.
- Microsoft Teams integration is supported by Personal Booking, Round Robin, Service Calendar and Collective Calendar. The Microsoft Teams integration will NOT work with the Event calendar as it is based on each user. This feature is coming soon for Class Booking Calendars.
- You can use Microsoft Teams with Event Calendars by manually generating a Teams meeting link and adding it to the calendar settings.
- Generate a meeting link in Microsoft Teams.
- In the calendar settings, select Custom as the Meeting Location
- Paste the generated Teams link. This is a static link, meaning the same link will be used for all future bookings.
