You can add tasks and events to your primary calendar in Microsoft 365 from Zoho Projects.  You can enable or disable the Outlook action cards that are sent along with the task or issue email notifications from Zoho Projects. With action cards, the portal users can perform instant actions like performing transitions, assigning work items, setting due dates and modifying their priority, right from their Outlook mailbox.
