View Calendar in Teams

Whether you’re engaged in a Teams call or not, you can view your calendar without leaving the tab!

In Teams (https://teams.microsoft.com/), click on the Calendar button in the side pane.

You’ll notice the calendar view is similar to Outlook, albeit stripped-down and not offering as many options.

Unfortunately, there is no month view, but you can still show individual days and your workweek.

In Teams, an event is called a meeting.

One way of scheduling a meeting is to select a time block. This presents you with some familiar fields to fill in.

Click Send to confirm the meeting. This delivers an alert to the attendees and adds it to the calendar.

Another way is to use the dropdown button in the top-right.

New meeting and Schedule meeting are the same things, but you’ve also got two additional choices: Webinar and Live event.

Use Webinar if you plan to broadcast a presentation or something similar where you want audience participation.

A URL will automatically generate that appears when they click on the calendar event, allowing direct access to the webinar.

Live event is less flexible, as it is designed for one-way broadcasts with no interaction features apart from Q&A functionality.
