Outlook calendar not updating in Google calendar

Hi there!

I use Outlook for work and would like to view my work Outlook calendar on my personal Google calendar. I published my Outlook calendar to my Google calendar using the ICS link as instructed. This worked! However, any new or changed events to my Outlook calendar do not refresh on my Google calendar.

Is there a way for changes to my Outlook calendar to reflect on my Google calendar?

Thanks in advance for your help!

    Thank you Eraldo. Onecal.io is a great paid solution and it does exactly what is currently not working. Additionally, I found the Google script and have been running it for several days now. So far so good!

    I don't feel comfortable installing scripts - any other solution you know of?

    As mentioned earlier, OneCal is another option. Here is what they told me: "If your Outlook organization allows you to connect your calendar to third party apps, you should be able to sync it to your Google calendar in no time with OneCal. You can sign up for a 2-week free trial at https://www.onecal.io/ and just follow the onboarding steps. The process should be very straight forward, but we're here to help in case you have any questions or issues.

    Thanks for suggestions to date. BUT I don't want to have to pay for another subscription to an app - which I shouldn't have to use.

    Nor am I comfortable at this stage running the script given my limited skills, I really need it spelt out more for me I think. Is running script reversible?

    Is Microsoft onto providing a permanent solution to this issue which appears to existed for some time?

    Dieter - thanks for this script. I have absolutely NO experience in running this sort of thing, so wondered if you would be so kind as to make it absolutely idiot proof.

    I have copied it, and from what I can tell, the main areas I need to edit are primarily lines 24-30.

    I go to Outlook and get the URL link for my calendar. I edit the script literally as follows in red (actual file names edited for privacy)

    var sourceCalendars = ["https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/??myoutlookfilename??/calendar.ics","Al from Oz (Outlook)"                // The ics/ical urls that you want to get events from along with their target calendars (list a new row for each mapping of ICS url to Google Calendar) // For instance: ["https://p24-calendars.icloud.com/holidays/us_en.ics", "US Holidays"]// Or with colors following mapping https://developers.google.com/apps-script/reference/calendar/event-color,// for instance: ["https://p24-calendars.icloud.com/holidays/us_en.ics", "US Holidays", "11"]["https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=??mygooglefilename??", "Al from Oz"],["icsUrl2", "targetCalendar2"],["icsUrl3", "targetCalendar1"]

    I also edited the frequency of checking. When I run it, the only thing it seems to do is adjust the frequency of checking. And there is no information appearing in the Google calendar. I must be missing something simple.

    Can you please spell it out for me? Thanks so much for your script and effort in resolving this for ppl.
