    To retrieve a deleted calendar appointment in Microsoft Exchange, you can use the Recover Deleted Items feature in Outlook. Here are the steps to follow:

    1. Open Outlook and navigate to the Public Folders section.
    2. Select the folder from which the appointment was deleted.
    3. Click on Recover Deleted Items.
    4. In the window that appears, select the appointment you want to restore.
    5. Ensure the Restore Selected Items option is selected and click OK.

    This will restore the deleted appointment back to your calendar.

    Note that the ability to recover deleted items may depend on your permissions and the retention settings configured for your mailbox.

    Hi,

    Your deleted calendar appointment can usually be recovered from Deleted Items or Recover Deleted Items in Outlook. If it’s not in either location, it’s permanently deleted unless your organization has backups or retention policies.

    First check Deleted Items, then Recover Deleted Items.  If both fail, recovery isn’t possible without a backup.

    Happy to help!
