Personal Outlook Calendar

• Create events from items & subitems.
• Create items & subitems from events.
• Full data mapping.
• Keep events data in sync with changes in your board.

Main Differentiation from  monday.com  Native Solution

• Select which calendar to use - instead of defaulting only to the primary calendar.
• Supports both items & subitems.
• Full data mapping - including files, updates, and meeting attendees.
• Full control over event hours - instead of full-day events.
• Flexible & robust triggers for enhanced control - the existing integration creates an item for every event or an event for every item. This integration allows you to control which items or events are created based on your conditions.

Team Outlook Calendar

Main Benefits vs. Personal Calendar

• Centralized Management & One-Time Authentication – Each team member authenticates once, and all connections are managed in one place through the Connection Center. Once set up, anyone configuring automation can apply it to the entire team without requiring individual authentications or multiple setups.
• Simplified Setup – Instead of creating separate automations per person, a single automation works for the entire team.
• Flexible Event Reassignment – Events can be reassigned between team members without creating duplicates or leaving outdated events in the wrong calendar.
• Smart Assignment Logic – Automations can assign events based on workload, availability, or custom rules, ensuring better distribution of tasks.
• Supports  monday.com  native teams
• Easier Maintenance – If team roles change, updating calendar assignments is seamless without reconfiguring multiple automations.
