This change is rolling out gradually and will have a significant impact on users who frequently use both Outlook and Google Calendar. The update will apply to all Google Workspace customers and users with personal Google Accounts, and it does not require any action from users.
This enhancement follows recent efforts by both Google and Microsoft to improve the interoperability between their platforms. In May 2023, an update allowed better collaboration between Outlook and Google Calendar users, enabling them to share their availability status and view each other’s schedules.
