I want to better integrate my Microsoft Outlook and To Do. Namely, when an event is added to the Outlook Calendar, I want it to automatically add the corresponding task to the Microsoft ToDo. I could only find flagged emails that can be added to the ToDo app but not calendar events.

I feel like this should be very trivial but searching the web has not yielded anything that is useful.

Thanks in advance for your help

With a cloud license of the Office, you can use Microsoft Power Automate platform (formerly Microsoft Flow) to create a server rule which will automatically create a task for every added event. Once you log into the platform, you can search for existing workflows (recommended – maybe such a flow is already there) or create your own with these properties

  • Flow Type:
    Automated

  • Condition name (type the name to start on-the-fly filtering of available options):
    When an event is added, updated or deleted

  • Action name (type the name to start on-the-fly filtering of available options):
    Create a Task

If you created your custom flow, it may need some tweaking until it starts working satisfactorily but this is the way envisioned by the Microsoft on how to implement custom chains of actions in Office or any other platforms connected to their ecosystem.
