What is the difference between Outlook calendars in Jira and Outlook meetings for Jira?

The calendar integration provides a consolidated view of Outlook events and Jira dates for planning and scheduling. Outlook meetings for Jira focuses on creating an individual Outlook or Microsoft Teams meeting from a Jira work item, including attendees, availability, permissions, and meeting content. Therefore, teams can use the calendar for broader schedule visibility and the meetings feature for work item-specific appointments.

Which Outlook calendars can I add to Jira?

The integration supports personal calendars, user calendars, Outlook group calendars, room calendars, and Microsoft Teams channel calendars. In addition, administrators can combine these sources with Jira work item or release calendars.

A project calendar is configured by a Jira project (space) administrator and provides a shared view of relevant Jira and Outlook dates for the project team. Administrators can control calendar sources, access, and event details. In contrast, a personal calendar is configured by the individual user and is not shared with the wider team.

Can I control which Jira work items and dates appear?

Yes. Administrators can select calendar templates, Jira sources, date fields, filters, and display options. For example, calendars can focus on due dates, releases, sprint information, or work items from specific projects. Users can also choose between calendar, list, and timeline views to match their planning needs.

Can I schedule Outlook meetings from the Jira calendar?

Yes. Users can create an Outlook meeting directly from the calendar in Jira. Once scheduled, a separate Outlook invitation is sent to the participants, and the meeting appears in their Outlook and Microsoft Teams calendars. Therefore, teams can review project dates and schedule related meetings from the same Jira view.
