# Integration with Outlook Calendar

### Overview

Streamline your workflow by pushing MangoApps events directly into your Microsoft 365 or Outlook Calendar. This ensures you never miss a company meeting or team event while managing your daily inbox.

The Outlook integration is a Real-Time One-Way Sync from MangoApps to Outlook.

* Events created or updated in MangoApps are automatically pushed to the user's Outlook calendar.
* Attendees added to the MangoApps event will receive standard Outlook meeting invitations.

This integration does not include Polls/Ballots, Tasks, Milestones, or Holidays. Use the Webcal feed if you need these items to appear in Outlook.

Some rich text formatting in descriptions may be simplified to ensure compatibility with the Outlook interface.

### What Data is Synced?

MangoApps ensures all relevant meeting data carries over to your Microsoft environment:

* **Meeting Details**: Event titles, descriptions, and locations.
* **Conferencing**: Meeting links (Teams, Zoom, etc.) are preserved in the event body.
* **Recurrence**: Repeating event rules and reminder settings are synchronized.
* **Attachments**: Rather than uploading files to Outlook, MangoApps includes direct links to the relevant files in the event description to ensure version control.

### Administrator Setup

Admins can configure the sync via the **Admin Portal > Integrations > Built-In Integrations > Meeting Apps**.

* **Technical Requirements**: This requires an Azure app registration with `Calendars.ReadWrite` permissions and admin consent granted within your Microsoft 365 tenant.
* **Customization**: Admins can choose specific event types to sync, such as Meetings, Company Events, or Custom Events.
* **Sync Frequency**: Sync triggers immediately upon event changes, supported by background sync intervals (5 minutes to 4 hours).
* **Multi-Account Support**: Organizations can manage multiple Outlook accounts independently, enabling or disabling them as needed.
