Hello !

Unfortunately, at the moment, you cannot flag an event in Outlook's calendar.
You can categorize the event, put a charm next to the name, but flagging it like emails is not supported.

To do so, right-click on the event and select "Charm" or "Categorize".

Please let me know if you have any other question !

Answer 2

To add an event in Microsoft 365 Calendar and flag it, you can follow these general steps:

1. Create an Event: Use the Microsoft Graph API to create an event in your calendar. You can do this by sending a POST request to the /me/events endpoint with the necessary details of the event in the request body.
2. Flag the Event: Currently, the Microsoft Graph API does not support flagging calendar events in the same way it does for emails. However, you can manage events and their lifecycle, such as creating, updating, and deleting them. You might consider using reminders or notifications as a workaround to keep track of important events.

For detailed guidance on creating events, you can refer to the Microsoft Graph documentation on managing events and calendars.
