Adding a MS Teams Channel to a meeting invite created in Outlook

Henry, Vanessa 0

I need the ability to create a meeting in Outlook, and add a Teams Channel such that the Calendar created for the Teams Channel reflects the meeting invite. (NOTE: I see how to identify the email address for the Teams channel; once that email is added to the Outlook invite, an post is made to the channel, but there does not appear to be an option to add automatically to the Calendar) Is this possible?

That's not a supported scenario, use the Teams client to work with any Channel meetings.

As above said, you could consider using a shared calendar that is accessible to everyone in the Teams channel and invite that shared calendar to your meeting in Outlook.

Unfortunately, our organization has a lot more familiarity and in general, is much more accustomed to scheduling through Outlook. This would be a beneficial feature.

It's a common (and fair) request, but it's up to Microsoft whether they deliver it.

Try sending an invitation to an individual in a Teams channel meeting.
