Setup steps (download & install)

Simple steps to install ISS — Calendar Overlay into your SharePoint tenant.

Back to Calendar Overlay product page

Install (download + deploy)

  1. Download the package
    Download ISS-Calendar-overlay.sppkg from this link.
  2. Open your SharePoint App Catalog
    Go to your tenant's SharePoint App Catalog site and open Apps for SharePoint.
  3. Upload the package
    Click Upload, then select the downloaded `.sppkg` file.
  4. Deploy it
    In the dialog that appears, click Deploy. When prompted, choose tenant-wide availability if your policy allows. Wait 1–3 minutes for SharePoint to finish making it available.
  5. Approve API access (required)
    In SharePoint Admin Center → API access, approve both permissions requested by the solution:
    • Microsoft Graph Calendars.Read (personal calendar overlay, when enabled)
    • ISSWebpartEntitlements License.Check (organization license validation)
  6. Add it to a page
    Open the SharePoint page where you want it. Click Edit → click + → open Advanced → search Calendar Overlay → add it. In the property pane, use Calendars & groups to paste each site URL and select list/view sources. Publish the page.

Microsoft Teams

To show the calendar in Teams, publish a SharePoint page with the web part configured, then add that page as a channel tab in Teams. API permissions and licensing must be approved in SharePoint first.

Install updates

When you receive an updated .sppkg file, updates are installed the same way as the initial deployment:

  1. Open Apps for SharePoint in your App Catalog.
  2. Upload the newer `.sppkg` file.
  3. Confirm/Deploy when prompted, then wait a minute or two.
  4. Refresh the pages where the web part is used (and clear browser cache if you're troubleshooting stale assets).
