  Teams automatically creates a new post when a channel meeting is created. It will appear in the activity feed and/or in a banner notification depending on users notification settings. Any user who has notifications turned off will see the event only when they open the channel calendar.

  Note: the channel calendar is available only to team members. Guest users cannot access the channel calendar app.

  What you need to do to prepare

  The Channel calendar is available to all users by default.

  Administrators can control apps by following the guidance in the article: Manage your apps in the Microsoft Teams admin center.

  You might want to notify your users about this new capability and update your training and documentation as appropriate.
