Connect Outlook Calendar and Windmill to surface meeting patterns and collaboration

What is Outlook Calendar?

Outlook Calendar is Microsoft’s calendar and scheduling tool, part of Microsoft 365. It’s how millions of teams schedule meetings, coordinate availability, and manage their time across departments and organizations.

How Windmill Uses Your Outlook Calendar Integration

Windmill connects to Outlook Calendar to detect meetings and bring calendar context into Windmill:

• Event titles and descriptions providing context about each meeting
• Attendees and organizers showing collaboration and cross-team involvement
• Meeting times, durations, and recurrence helping Windmill identify 1:1s and ongoing commitments
• User profiles and group memberships matching activity to employee profiles and teams

The integration is limited to calendar data and organizational directory information. Windmill does not access email content, attachments, or message bodies.

Benefits of the Windmill Outlook Calendar Integration

Organize recurring 1:1s automatically. Windmill uses calendar data to detect and track meetings between managers and reports.

Reduce manual preparation. Meeting titles, descriptions, participants, and timing provide ready context for upcoming conversations.
