Calendar Icon not showing up on Teams

Hello,

I just signed up for Teams and I watched the training video about setting up meetings/calendars. In the video I noticed there is a "calendar" icon down the left side of the desktop version. I do not have that, nor do I have the option to add it. Any advice would be great.

Thank you

Hello Matt,

As you didn't see Calendar icon in the Teams Desktop App, to isolate if it is related to your Desktop App, please try to sign in your Teams Web App ( https://teams.microsoft.com/) and double check if you could find the calendar there, thanks.

If you still cannot find it in the Teams Web, in this case please try to contact your Teams admin ( if you don't know who is your admin, please contact the IT department of your company or school) and then check if your admin has assigned calendar access permission for you.

1.Sign into Teams Admin Center https://admin.teams.microsoft.com/ with the Teams admin account

  1. Navigate to Users > find your teams account there and click it to open the settings page.
  2. Click Policies > App permission policy and open it.
  3. Double check if the Calendar was added for you there, if not your admin can try to add it for you into Pinned apps  and save the changes, thanks.

Please note, the changes in the Teams Admin Center make take some hours to take effect, so please wait for it with some more patience, thanks.

If you got any further updates, please feel free to let me know, thanks.

Best Regards,

Oliver

    Hi Colin,

    Just as a heads up. I've been trying to figure exactly this for the last few months and received nothing of value on here except jumbled explanations that to me make no sense. 

    I've looked for ages to try and figure it out but had no success. Hopefully you will have more luck so if you do figure it out please share :) 

    Many thanks

    Tim

    I am using the free microsoft teams app and registered as a freelance for this company as I am working for them on a short contract.

    Although I can join meetings set up by others through google calendar, I am having difficulty setting them up myself and don't have a calendar on LHS side bar of Teams. What do I need to do to access this service as its pretty useless if I can't use these functions as team leader for the project! Do I need to ask the company to do something?
