Outlook Calendar changes not showing up in Google Calendar

Hello there!

I have Outlook email and Calendar (and I'm not sure what else) through work. I shared my main Outlook Calendar to my personal Google Calendar account by importing the Outlook .ICS URL (found in Outlook.com > Settings > Calendar > Shared Calendars) into GC. All events show up usually, but this past week I haven't seen event changes showing up in GC, even more than 24 hours after the changed event passed. I can't find any way to manually force a sync/update.

What can be done to ensure event changes to my Outlook Calendar show up in my Google Calendar? This is important for me because I have a long-established system of meeting reminders based around my Google Calendar, and whether OC supports that setup or not it would be too much work to redo it all for this 1 calendar.

Thanks in advance,

Grant

    Do what exactly? The issue is with Google not fetching the newest calendar changes. They have their on team on it I have seen from online forums. It seems Microsoft is updating the ICS-file correctly. You can download it to check. And still Google doesn't fetch it.

    It works fine syncing Google to Outlook, just not the other way.

    Could you let us know the outcome in a few days....I have definitely experienced some short-term updating of GC from Outlook, but nothing the next day. Perhaps the ics URL in OC refreshes itself and so breaks the link between GC and OC? If the ics URL were static then perhaps that would fix it.

    I haven't posted that in feedback, I will. I have paid our IT support company to help me find a solution, they didn't have an answer.

    Hi g2zant,

    Greetings!

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    Based on your description, it seems to be that you are having issues with your Outlook calendar wherein events are suddenly not showing up on your Google calendar. There might be something wrong with the synchronization of your calendar between Outlook and Google. Let’s work together in finding the best solution to this issue.

    For me to better understand the issue, I’d like to ask a few questions:

    • Have you already tried checking your Outlook calendar on the webmail(Outlook.com)?
    • What was your last activity on your Outlook calendar?
    • Have you checked the permissions of your Outlook calendar if it was set to properly to "Can view all details"?
    • And since this is your work calendar, have you already contacted your company IT admin to check on your calendar permissions? IT might be that this is due to some restrictions set by your company.

    To further isolate the problem, how about if you try removing your Outlook calendar from your Google calendar then try again to adding it back. Then wait for it to synchronize.

    I look forward to your response.

    Sincerely,

    ReynaldoB
