MicrosoftHi Jason,
Have you managed to get a response for this issue? I am having the same issue with my calendar as well, the synchronization takes too long on Outlook actually. Thanks for sharing it!
In my testing 5 months ago tasks in Outlook calendar were updating automatically, although very slowly (30-60 minutes).
Ok, that explains things, but in my world adding meetings to a calendar and see them update after one hour is like it is not working and all. In one hour a lot of things might have happened and others may have booked in other meetings in that spot.
We are not using Planner to book meetings. But anyway, it was just proof of concept and it didn't catch on at our place, partly because it is so slow to update and Planner is just one click away in Teams or browser anyway. I guess there may be some technical design issues explaining why it works so sluggishly, but it feels like "Outlook integration" was done to just mark a check mark in the list of features.
