Create an Outlook Calendar event without the Monday.com-Outlook integration

Hello,

Some of my coworkers have been using Monday.com (for 2 months). And our goal is that everyone in the company uses it.

They want me(IT admin) to find a way to automatically create an event in their outlook calendar when a task is programmed WITHOUT the outlook integration.

I know that i can automate things in monday.
But i’ve just discovered the app so if anyone can help i’d be very happy.

This is what i want:

  • When a task is not finished or programmed, I want monday.com to send an e-mail to the person concerned with all the detail of the task.
  • When i recieve the e-mail with a specific configuration, the event is automatically created in my calendar.(Using power automate or a script in Outlook, i don’t know yet).

Thanks,

Hey @yohdf

We developed an app called Outlook Calendar Integration Plus that provides a robust Outlook calendar <> monday.com integration.

Not sure why your team doesn’t want to use monday.com’s native solution but I suspect is because it’s very limited. We developed our app to solve these exact limitations.
Here are the key differences from monday’s native solution -

  1. Allows to select which calendar to use (not just the primary default)
  2. Supports subitems
  3. Much more flexible triggers - “no more sync every item”
  4. Allows full mapping - updates, invitees and more
  5. Allows to control the start & end date and time.

You can find it in the monday.com marketplace in the platform or here - https://monday.com/marketplace/listing/10000518/outlook-calendar-integration-plus

Hope that helps
