    Hello @Rachel L

    Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.  

    I'm sincerely sorry that you're facing this frustrating issue.  

    This lack of synchronization is a common issue when trying to unify calendar views across Microsoft 365 services, mainly due to Calendar Type Confusion: 

    • SharePoint calendars added via web parts are often classic calendars, not directly tied to Microsoft 365 Groups. 
    • Microsoft 365 Group calendars are managed through Outlook 

    However, you can try these workaround steps to see if they can resolve your issue: 

    Embed Microsoft 365 Group Calendar in SharePoint 

    This method displays the calendar in SharePoint using an Outlook web part or embed code. 

    1. Get the Calendar Link 

    • Go to Outlook on the Web. 
    • In the left pane, find your Group calendar under “Groups”. 
    • Click the three dots (…) next to the group name and choose Settings or Share. 
    • Copy the iCal link or HTML link for embedding. 

    2. Add to SharePoint 

    • Go to your SharePoint site. 
    • Click Edit on the page where you want the calendar. 
    • Add a "Embed" web part. 
    • Paste the HTML link or embed code. 
    • Save and publish the page. 

    Use Power Automate to Sync Events 

    This method creates a flow to copy events from a Microsoft 365 Group calendar to a SharePoint list. 

    1. Create a SharePoint List 

    • Go to your SharePoint site. 
    • Create a new custom list with columns like: 
      • Title 
      • Start Time 
      • End Time 
      • Location 
      • Description 

    2.Create a Power Automate Flow 

    • Go to Power Automate. 
    • Click Create > Automated Flow. 
    • Choose a trigger: “When an event is added to a calendar”. 
    • Select your Group calendar. 
    • Add an action: “Create item in SharePoint”. 
    • Map the calendar fields to your SharePoint list columns. 
    • Save and test the flow. 

    Note: You can also add the Group calendar as a tab in Teams for better visibility. 

    We truly appreciate your input, as it helps shape the future of Microsoft 365. I highly recommend that you submit your feature request to the Microsoft Feedback Portal: SharePoint · Community, where the product team actively reviews user suggestions for future updates.  As a Microsoft Q&A moderator, I'm not able to change this behavior directly, but I can guide you to the right place to share your feedback 

    In the meantime, I will also pass along your feedback to the appropriate team for further consideration. 
    Thank you for reaching out! Feel free to reply if you need any further assistance.
