Open Calendar View

Launch New Outlook or Outlook on the web and navigate to the Calendar tab on the left sidebar.

2
Locate the Subscription

Scroll through your calendar list under 'Other calendars' or 'My calendars' to find the subscribed web calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why did my subscribed calendar merge with my primary calendar?

This typically occurs when an ICS file is downloaded and imported directly into the primary calendar, rather than being added via the 'Subscribe from web' option, which keeps the calendars distinct.

Is there a way to undo a calendar import in New Outlook?

No, New Outlook and Outlook on the web currently do not feature an 'undo' button for calendar imports. Once merged, the imported events must be deleted manually.

Where can I manage my active calendar subscriptions in Outlook?

You can view and manage your active web subscriptions by navigating to the Calendar view, clicking 'Add calendar' in the left pane, and reviewing the lists under 'Subscribe from web' or your existing calendar groups.
