How Do I Connect Outlook Calendar?

FullSlot connects to Outlook and Microsoft 365 calendars directly via Microsoft, so cancellations are detected without any manual work on your end.


Before you start

Make sure you have:

  • A Microsoft account (personal Outlook or Microsoft 365 work/school account)
  • Admin or owner access to the calendar you use for appointments
  • At least one appointment type set up in FullSlot


How to connect

1. Go to Integrations in the sidebar 2. Click Connect next to Outlook Calendar 3. Sign in with your Microsoft account and authorize the connection 4. Select which calendar to monitor 5. Map your appointment types to the event patterns FullSlot should recognize

Once connected, FullSlot watches your Outlook calendar for cancellations in real time.


How cancellations are detected

FullSlot uses Microsoft's calendar change notifications to detect cancellations as they happen. A backup polling check runs periodically to catch anything that might have been missed.


Troubleshooting

The connection isn't showing as active:

  • Make sure you completed the Microsoft authorization flow fully
  • Try disconnecting and reconnecting from Integrations

Cancellations aren't being detected:

  • Verify the calendar you connected is the one your appointments live on
  • Check that your event types are mapped — unmapped types are silently ignored
