This article explains how to connect your Google calendar to Microsoft Teams in Windows 11.

The Microsoft Teams app is a communication platform that helps bring people together to get things done. Users can set up meetings, chats, video calls, communities, and more.

When you sign in with a Microsoft account, the default calendar that Teams connects to is your Outlook calendar. You can connect your Google calendar to Teams instead if you have a Google account.

Connecting Google Calendar to Teams replaces your current Outlook calendar. Events on your Outlook calendar will not sync to your Google Calendar. You can use only one calendar at a time, and you must disconnect Google Calendar to use your Outlook calendar again.

Consolidating calendars into Microsoft Teams provides a unified view. You might prefer Google Calendar's features over Outlook's, or you may use multiple calendars across different services. Combining these calendars into Microsoft Teams helps you see all your appointments in one place within Teams.

Additionally, if someone primarily uses Google’s suite of productivity tools, it may make more sense for them to use a Google calendar within Teams.

⚡ Quick Answer

Open Microsoft Teams, go to Settings, then Calendar, and click Connect on the Google calendar tile. Authorize the connection in your web browser by signing into your Google account and granting permissions. This integrates your Google Calendar directly into your Teams interface.
