OUTLOOK TOOL/SHARED CALENDARS

Question

Good Morning/Afternoon All

I am trying to create a team calendar in tableau so that when someone updates their weekly movements the whole team can quickly.

I have tried and tested this but the outlook tool doesnt seem to want to show shared calendars, only mine. Has anyone faced this issue that has a solution to modify/create my own macro to get this set up?

Thanks

i have already used the outlook tool as stated but couldnt get it to work for SHARED calendars, it works for my calendar, but not the ones that are shared with me.

Do you have any experience of this?

Searched the interne, it seems there are 3 ways

1. if you can write some codes, you can connect your Tableau to Outlook Calender.

2. If you are rich, you can use some importer tools.

3. Or use the macro here to give a shot.
