Tasks in Outlook

Meetings in thisflow
Publish your Outlook calendar as ICS and paste the link: your meetings show as grey busy blocks in the week and day plan.

Permissions and security
What flows, and what stays.
What flows
Out: your open tasks with a due date that are assigned to you, or that you created with nobody assigned, from 60 days back to a year ahead, each with its title, note, project and a link back. In: the events of calendars you add, read-only.
What is stored
thisflow never signs in to your Microsoft account. Your calendar link is stored hashed and encrypted. A calendar address you add is stored encrypted and never sent back to the browser, and its events are not saved in the database.
How to revoke
Choose New link or Turn off in Settings → Calendar and the old link stops working at once. Remove another calendar in Settings, or stop publishing the calendar in Outlook.
