There are two ways to link with your Outlook calendar from within MinuteMe.
If you have logged in to MinuteMe via the Sign in with Microsoft option, or we have been able to identify that your email is hosted with Microsoft 365, then you will see the Outlook calendar dashboard link on the Schedule dashboard.
Go to the schedule dashboard page.
Click Outlook calendar from the sidebar.
Click Link calendar. You will be prompted to login into your Microsoft account and allow MinuteMe to read your calendar.
Events from your primary calendar will automatically be loaded. To change which calendars you’d like to see in MinuteMe, choose Settings from the action menu
next to the heading Outlook calendar in the right hand panel.
You can link up with your Outlook calendar via the Integrations tab on your Profile & settings page accessed via your avatar from the left navigation menu.
After you have linked up via the Integrations tab, you will find the Outlook calendar dashboard appear at the top of the left sidebar on your Schedule dashboard.
The Outlook calendar dashboard is accessed via the sidebar on your Schedule dashboard and is an up-to-date view into your Outlook calendar. These events are not recorded or stored in MinuteMe until you have specifically elected to add them to an existing meeting in MinuteMe, or created them as a new meeting in MinuteMe. The events listed here will be automatically updated if they are changed in your Outlook calendar.
Using the Outlook calendar dashboard, you can click through to a meeting that has already been linked with MinuteMe, or you can add the meeting to MinuteMe if it’s new.
Add an event from your Outlook calendar to MinuteMe if you wish to record minutes and action items for that meeting, and if you want to keep it’s date/time and location synchronised in MinuteMe.
If a meeting is already in MinuteMe, you’ll be able to link up the Outlook meeting with the existing MinuteMe meeting or series.
If a meeting is not currently in MinuteMe you’ll be able to:
If you have Admin permission to the series or meeting in MinuteMe, then you’ll be able to keep the series schedule, date/time of each meeting, and the location and online meeting Url synchronised so that future changes in Outlook will be applied to MinuteMe almost immediately following the change in your Outlook calendar.
If you don’t have Admin permission to the series or meeting in MinuteMe, then you’ll only be able to link the event. This means that you can click through the event from your Outlook calendar dashboard to get to the MinuteMe meeting.
To add an event to MinuteMe, or to link it with an existing series/meeting in MinuteMe, click on it from the Outlook calendar dashboard.
You may be able to link your Outlook event with an existing series or meeting.
If there is an exact match on the meeting start time, we’ll pre-select this meeting for you as a possible match to link with.
If your meeting in Outlook is a repeating series, then you may like to link it with an existing series that doesn’t have a match on the meeting time. In this case, the repeating series schedule from Outlook will replace the schedule in MinuteMe, beginning from the date of the meeting you clicked on.
Select an option to link with existing series or create as new
Select a workspace to put the new meeting into.
Select an existing series you want to link with.
By checking this checkbox, the schedule, title and location will be copied over from Outlook and overwrite the details in the existing series/meeting in MinuteMe.

You can add an Outlook meeting as a private meeting if you wish to record your own notes for that meeting. In this case, the only difference is that all other attendees are given an access level of None - you can still assign action items to them and send them agendas and minutes however they will have no access to this meeting in MinuteMe.
If you want to create this event as a private meeting, you must tick the checkbox “Add this meeting as private” from members & roles settings.
You can unlink your Outlook event from your MinuteMe meeting via the action menunext to the meeting name at the top of the right panel of the meeting details page.
This will stop the meeting being synchronised (if you had chosen to keep it synchronised when it was linked), and remove the click-through link from the Outlook calendar dashboard.
There is not a direct way to re-sync an Outlook event. However you can unlink the meeting, and then link it up again with the existing meeting.
If a linked event or series is deleted in Outlook, and the linked meeting in MinuteMe has no topics or action items across any of its meetings, then it will be completely deleted from MinuteMe.
If there are any meetings with topics or action items, then those meetings will remain unchanged in MinuteMe, but any “not started” meetings will be deleted, and the series will be ended automatically to stop it repeating in MinuteMe.
From here, the MinuteMe series can be linked up with a new Outlook series.
If a linked series or meeting is archived in MinuteMe, the link with Outlook will be removed and no further updates from Outlook will be applied to that series/meeting.
If the series/meeting is pulled from the archive, it can be linked again with another Outlook meeting. To retrieve a meeting from the archive, refer to the Archiving series and meetings help guide.
To prevent the synchronising of events for an individual calendar, you can turn off the Link on/off slider.
To disconnect your Outlook calendar from MinuteMe and prevent any further synchronising of meetings, Click “Disconnect from Outlook calendar“.
