Power team-wide availability insights, enable smooth timezone updates, access round-robin booking, virtual calendars for non-human resources, and more.
Sync historical and live calendar data bi-directionally in real-time with 100% accuracy.
Outlook Calendar integration is time-consuming and expensive, involving complex requirements like authentication protocols, data synchronization, and ongoing maintenance. Additional considerations can add complexity and cost to the integration process:
With Nylas, none of these costs apply — we manage servers, specialization, security certifications, and provide world-class support SLAs.
Calculate your savings with the Nylas APIsNylas provides a secure solution for integrating with Outlook calendars, offering robust security measures to protect sensitive data.
Outlook Calendar API integration involves connecting the functionalities of Outlook Calendar
with another app or service using the Outlook Calendar API. The Outlook Calendar API allows developers to access and interact with calendar data, creating, updating, and retrieving events, tasks, and other calendar-related information.
By integrating with the Outlook Calendar API, developers can enable their apps to sync and interact with Outlook Calendar, providing users with seamless access to their events, appointments, and tasks from within the integrated platform. This integration allows users to leverage the features and capabilities of Outlook Calendar while using their preferred app or service.
To start integrating with the Outlook Calendar API, you must first authenticate your application with Outlook to obtain the required credentials. Microsoft has API documentation you can follow, which outlines the endpoints, request formats, and response structures. Then, utilize the documentation and relevant SDKs to build your integration and access the desired calendar functionalities.
To integrate the Outlook Calendar API with your app, follow this step-by-step guide, covering all the necessary aspects to sync Google and Outlook calendars, allowing you to combine calendars from different providers. Get instructions on setting up a Nylas application, utilizing Vercel for frontend and backend development, configuring Google and Azure apps, testing app integrations through the Nylas Dashboard, implementing a hosted authentication flow, handling the Nylas callback in the backend, syncing calendar events, and displaying the synchronized calendars on the frontend.
The cost of using Outlook Calendar integration depends on your subscription plan. If you’re using Microsoft 365, calendar integration is typically included as part of the subscription. However, if you’re using a standalone Outlook account, there may be limitations or additional costs associated with API access. Check Microsoft’s pricing documentation or consult their sales team for accurate and up-to-date information.
Adding calendar functionality to your app includes additional costs beyond initial setup and configuration. You also need to consider ongoing maintenance and support, necessary updates or upgrades, security, infrastructure, and fees charged by the providers. See here for a detailed breakdown of integration steps, time savings per provider, and how Nylas can save you money and help you integrate faster.
Several programming language options exist to integrate the Outlook Calendar API with your app. JavaScript/Node.js, Python, C#, Java, and Ruby are popular choices. These languages allow you to make HTTP requests and interact with the Outlook Calendar API. You can also consider using Nylas, which provides an API abstraction layer for integrating with various calendar services, including Outlook Calendar. Nylas simplifies the integration process by offering a unified interface that you can use with different programming languages.
