Planner - when is integration with Microsoft calendar coming?

[Cliodhna McGuirk]

Hi there

I asked this in the main Trello forum but I think here would be better..

I need Microsoft calendar integration to use the new Planner tool - it looks great but without integration with my MS calendar, I can't plan.

It says its coming "in 2025" - anyone have any idea when in 2025? I'm disappointed Planner went into Beta without this feature

Thanks

Thank you for exploring Trello Beta, @Cliodhna McGuirk

While I wouldn't be able to give you an exact date - Outlook support is coming soon, and it is our top priority.

Fantastic! Looking forward to this feature!

I'm looking forward to this as well, but in the meantime, I found a workaround by sharing my Outlook calendar into my Google Calendar. This allows me to see my Outlook schedule in the Planner.

That sounds amazing, can you give info how you did this?

You go to Outlook settings, then calendar on the left, then shared calendars and you should see some options to publish. You then copy the the ICS link.

Then go to Google Calendar and on sidebar, click the plus button beside "Other calendars", then "From URL".

 

Then paste your ICS link and hit "Add calendar":

Then find your new calendar on the right, rename it, give it a color, and make sure it is ticked and you should see your events.

Notes:

• You will not be able to edit the events, you view all their details.
• If you create an event in Outlook, it will take around 15 minutes to update in your new calendar.
• You can also share your Google calendar with outlook so you can have it both ways.

Yep... this exactly! It's a great workaround, but I can't wait for the native integration with Outlook!

I definitely want this too. i work with a team and we all love trello but its integration with ms 365 makes it a pain to use with the limited functionality of the onedrive power up.
