After accepting an event invitation via Windows Outlook, the events delta sends @removed

It sends two entries, the first is @removed, and the second is a new event with the same data (but different ID). It doesn't seem to happen when calendar events are accepted without using the desktop outlook client.

Is this intentional? Does anyone have more information on this? Thanks

    Hi @Leo B ,

    Yes, this is an expected behavior by default, To change this, open Settings > Calendar > Events and invitations (or directly https://outlook.office.com/mail/options/calendar/eventAndInvitations) and toggle the Delete invitations and responses that have been updated setting.
