Outlook calendar invite to sharepoint calender/event app

Question

We are a group who should be aware of mutual meetings booked via outlook, I want to reflect these meetings on our sharepoint site preferebly through a calendar app.

What are my options?

I have a specific group email (not a distribution list) can I use that for the calendar?

Should I make a group calendar?

Can I make a sharepoint list and invite through outloook?

Answer 1

There are usually three ways to achieve this.

1.Use group calendar web part in the SharePoint page.

2.Embed the whole calendar page in the Outlook Web App with iframe codes. First you should add outlook.office.com in the allowed list via the steps in this article and then use Embed webpart in the SharePoint online site page. You can use the iframe as follows.

<iframe src="https://outlook.office.com/calendar/view/month" style="border:0px #ffffff none;" name="myiFrame" scrolling="no" frameborder="1" marginheight="0px" marginwidth="0px" height="400px" width="600px" allowfullscreen></iframe> 

3.Connect SharePoint classic calendar list to your Outlook, then sync these meetings from outlook into the contact list.
