How to add Teams channels calendar in desktop outlook and mobile outlook clients includes Android and iOS devices?

Answer 1

Hi @Vinod Survase

To my knowledge it is not possible to add the channel calendar to Outlook.

As channel calendar is the filtered version of group calendar (by filtering the events within the channel).

You can however, add the group channel to Outlook. While note that it may show all events from all channels.

In PowerShell 7 run as admin if you have the Exchange admin role:

• Connect-ExchangeOnline
• Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Exact name of Microsoft Team" -HiddenFromAddressListsEnabled $false
• Set-UnifiedGroup -Identity "Exact name of Microsoft Team" -HiddenFromExchangeClientsEnabled:$false

Once these settings have been applied, wait a minute, then any owner or member of the group whose settings have been modified can take the following steps*:

• Outlook web app:
• • CTRL+F5 to refresh your calendar page in your browser and check under "Groups" on the left side column
• New Outlook:
• -Close out of New Outlook and reopen it, then check under "Groups" on the left side column
• Outlook Desktop App:
• • Close Outlook and reopen it, then check under "All Group Calendars" on the left side column

*Events created in the calendar of the Team/Group itself will show up along with any events in any channel calendars within the Team, where applicable.

The channel calendar is simply a filtered view of the Teams/Group calendar, it's not a separate entity. Outlook does not offer any functionality to add a "channel" calendar, neither on desktop nor on mobiles. Best you can do is add the Teams/Group calendar itself, but you have to "unhide" it first (toggle the HiddenFromExchangeClientsEnabled flag).
