New Outlook automatically adds a Teams meeting to the calendar when responding to a meeting invitation; there is no separate setting required just to “save” a received Teams invite to the calendar.

For new meetings that are created (not received), ensure that Outlook is configured to add an online Teams meeting by default:

1. Open Outlook for Windows (new Outlook) or Outlook on the web.
2. Go to Calendar.
3. Open Calendar settings.
4. Select Events and invitations.
5. Under Events you create, turn on Add online meeting to all meetings.
6. Under Choose a meeting provider, select Microsoft Teams.
7. Select Save.

This ensures that all meetings created from Outlook are Teams meetings and appear on the Outlook calendar.
