I am using Outlook for Mac to connect to a Microsoft Exchange Server (not O365). I used the instructions on Sync Asana + Google Calendar, Outlook, Apple | Product guide • Asana Product Guide to download the iCal file and sync w/ Outlook.
I noticed that the tasks get synced over , however, they block my Calendar as “busy” with the all day events generated by the tasks. This unintended outcome is completely cumbersome.

How can I cancel this sync ?

Hi @Agasthi_Kothurkar, thanks for reaching out!

You can remove a synced project from Outlook Calendar following these steps:

  1. Right click the Asana project’s name
  2. Select Remove

You can also update your Outlook settings so the events created from the Asana tasks are not automatically set as busy!

I hope this helps!
