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!

I implemented this Google Script on the Google end and so far it seems to be solving the sync issue (Outlook calendar to Google calendar): https://script.google.com/home/projects/1BOk8MDLbLaHh6SwG1M1tsgNXjkcC-79LE0QoipRuTDxbO3fMVvqoROQD
I had the same issue -- events not syncing FROM outlook into google. I tried removing and then re-adding the same .ics link to my Google with the same results of newer events not showing up.
Here's what I did that fixed it (for now):
Follow instructions from before for publishing your Outlook Calendar. You should then see your previously published outlook calendar link. REMOVE that link. Then re-publish your calendar and get a new .ics link. Add that into Google. That is now working for me. For some reason, Outlook stopped pushing updates to the old link. Seems more widespread than MS may realize. Hope this helps others --
Mine syncs but then doesn't seem to update.
As you note in your later post, this only works once, since it forces Google to re-read the .ics URL, including all your latest calendar entries.
As far as I can tell, Outlook is actually updating the calendar at the .ics URL. You can verify this by clicking "..." next to the imported calendar in Google Calendar, then Settings, then copy the URL, then paste it into the title bar. This will download a .ics file (the same one Google Calendar should be reading). If you open that in a text editor and search for an event you added recently, you will find it, even though it isn't showing up on Google Calendar. So this is a Google problem, not a Microsoft problem.
The https://www.outlookgooglecalendarsync.com/ solution looks like it may work, but it requires running an app (continuously?) on a Windows computer. That's not an option for me with a Mac.
The discussion at https://support.google.com/calendar/thread/11953852/why-won-t-my-outlook-calendar-sync-with-google-calendar?hl=en tackles this from the Google side and has some helpful suggestions. I ended up using https://calendarbridge.com/ linked from there. This costs $4/mo but in addition to syncing Outlook -> Google, it has a calendar booking option, which lets me cancel my calendly.com account. One thing to note: Outlook doesn't publish new calendar entries immediately, although it does seem to be pretty fast. So if a new entry in your Outlook calendar doesn't show up in your Google calendar via the CalendarBridge sync, you should try right-clicking on the title of the calendar in Outlook and choosing "Sync".
I've found this solution https://support.google.com/calendar/thread/205900609?hl=en&msgid=210862726
Which was also posted here, earlier by Hip Pickles7 (I can't find how to get a link to that comment..)
If you have the outlook app installed on Android, open the app, open settings, click your outlook account, and ensure 'Sync calendar' is turned on.
