Export an Exchange mailbox Calendar and import those events to a 365 Group/Team Calendar

Lori Collins 0

Would like to eliminate Exchange mailbox calendars and convert to 365 Group for ease of collaboration with Teams. Need to transfer all calendar events/entries to the new 365 Group Calendar. Need to do this with multiple Exchange mailboxes that are used only for the calendar function.

I cannot get the calendar to list view. I can change the view but it simply show my regular calendar in list view.

Also when in the Exchange Admin Center, I select the mailbox, there is no "more" option.

Thank you,

Hi @ Lori Collins，

Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

According to your description, you want to know how to export an Exchange mailbox calendar and import those events into a 365 group/team calendar. You can try the following:

Sign in to the Exchange Admin Center and navigate to Recipients > Mailboxes.

Select the mailbox you want to export, click More options > Export to a .pst file

Open Outlook, select File > Open & Export > Import/Export > Import from another program or file, and then select Outlook Data File (.pst). Then browse and select the .pst file you want to import, select Next, and then select Finish.

Go to the Calendar view and find the imported calendar events in the folder list on the left. Select these events and drag them into the group or team calendar.

We are Exchange online. I do not have those options.

When I change the view of the calendar, it will not change a "shared calendar" view. You can google it, a lot of comments with the same issue.

Appreciate the suggestions though.

Hi @ Lori Collins，

Thank you for your reply. Regarding changing the view, I am using the Outlook client of Exchange Online. In order to more easily confirm the cause of the problem, can you provide a screenshot of the change of the calendar view?

Best,

Jeanne

Thanks for the reply.

My view is exactly the same as the screenshot you provided. I can change to list view on the shared calendar, but it will simply revert back to "My Calendar" and not the shared calendar I am trying to get in list view.

Hi @Lori Collins，

Thanks for your reply. You can try the following steps:

If your calendar events are not showing after importing, you can try to select More Options > Folders in Outlook. Switch to Folder view and see if you can find the imported calendar folder. As shown in the screenshot:

You can use Outlook web version to check if there are imported calendar events. As shown in the screenshot:

This may also happen if you choose the wrong folder when importing or if there is a problem with the exported content. You can try to export again, then create a new calendar folder and import the events in the .pst file into this new calendar.

Best,

Jeanne
