Skype for business meetning invitation in online o365 calendar

Please correct me if I am wrong, but why is it no longer possible to create a skype for business meeting/invitation in the o365 web calendar? I believe I did this before, but now I need to go to Outlook (local) to manage this. 

 

Hope this functionality will enter the stage again.

    Hi Jan, if you have skype on premises and Of365, maybe this option appear unable, this option appear if you have all products on the cloud, i have the same issue on my tenant. i think that is the reason... anyway I send a support ticket to microsoft to be sure.

    I still am able to schedule Skype for Business meeting invitations (Business Premium plan - US). The picture shows the menu when creating a New meeting > Add Skype meeting.  What kind of plan or set up does your organization have? Maybe need to go to Answers community or open a support ticket if you think you should have it.

      We have a combination of Business Premium and Enterprise E3. Had this possibility before, but at some point (a few months back) it disappeared.

        Jan, could it be possible you aren't using a browser that supports the full version of Outlook web app? I have checked multiple plans (Business Premium, E3, and E5) and the option is available on all (even on a web page using a Windows Phone). Please review this article to rule out your browser as the reason you no longer see the ability to schedule online meetings. Supported browsers for Outlook on the web for business
