Hi everyone, sorry for the delay in my reply!

Unfortunately here on the Forum team we don’t have access to this specific integration to test some of the issues reported on our end. The best way to have these escalated would be reaching out to our [Support team](https://forum.asana.com/t/how-to-contact-our-support-team/87774) and providing some examples of event creations that didn’t work well. They will be able to look into the logs and file a request with our Developers. If you run into issues using the Help Center, please follow these suggestions:

- **Option 1:** Access our [Help Center](https://help.asana.com/) in an incognito browser window and start the chat via the button at the bottom right **without logging in**. This way, you will not run into the authentication issue that is still in the process of being fixed.
- **Option 2:** If incognito mode doesn’t work on your end, please use [this temporary form](https://form.jotform.com/242547253341049) to submit your request to our Support team.

> 1. _Task sync direction_ implies more than currently selectable. Can we expect a two-way sync in the future? Especially for rescheduling tasks it would be really conventient if that could be done from Outlook, as in Outlook we can overlay colleague calendars with our own to see availability.
> 2. The options under _Field sync direction_ don’t seem to have much options save for removing the adding of collaborators as attendees. Can we expect this to change? What would be great is to be able to destinguish between required attendees and optional attendees. Collaborators now sync with “Attendees” which in actuality is “Required attendees” in Outlook. This could work maybe by creating an custom people field, and syncing that with optional attendees? I’ve tried creating the field but it doesn’t give any options to add field connections.

@Jan-Rienk, great questions. This iteration has been fully launched for now, and there are no immediate plans to add more functionalities. However, two-way sync is a highly requested feature that is on our radar.

I’m passing all the feedback in this thread to the Product team, and hopefully, these suggestions can be implemented in the future. 🙂
