What the Microsoft Teams integration does

When Microsoft Teams is connected, Novacal can automatically create a dedicated Teams meeting for a booking and attach the join link to that event. This integration works independently from Outlook Calendar. You can connect Teams on its own, or use it alongside Outlook Calendar if you also want calendar syncing and conflict checking.

How to connect Microsoft Teams

  1. Navigate to the Apps & Integrations page and open Microsoft Teams
  2. Click the Connect button
  3. Sign in with your Microsoft account and approve the requested permissions
  4. After the connection is complete, Microsoft Teams will appear in your connected video conferencing apps

How to use Microsoft Teams for bookings

  1. Go to Event Types and open the event type you want to edit
  2. In the Basic tab, choose Microsoft Teams as the location
  3. Save the event type
  4. When someone books that event type, Novacal will create a Teams meeting and include the join link with the booking

How Microsoft Teams works with Outlook Calendar

You do not need Outlook Calendar to use Microsoft Teams in Novacal. If you also connect Outlook Calendar, the two integrations work side by side:
  • Microsoft Teams creates the meeting link
  • Outlook Calendar can still be used for calendar sync, conflict detection, and automatic event creation

How to set Microsoft Teams as your default video conferencing app

  1. Go to Video Conferencing Settings
  2. Choose Microsoft Teams as the default app
  3. New event types will use Teams as the default location unless you change them manually

How to disconnect Microsoft Teams

  1. Navigate to Apps & Integrations and open Microsoft Teams
  2. Click the Disconnect button

Troubleshooting

  • Confirm that Microsoft Teams is still connected in Apps & Integrations
  • Open the event type and make sure Microsoft Teams is selected as the location
  • Reconnect the integration if your Microsoft session has expired or permissions were revoked

I also want the booking to appear in my Microsoft calendar

Connect Outlook Calendar separately and enable automatic calendar event creation in Calendar Settings.
