Is Office 365 Outlook and outlook.live.com the same thing?

Hello

I am a newbie in make.powerautomate.com and wanted to build a first simple flow.

If someone drops a calendar file *.ics into a OneDrive folder (shared with family & friends) then my personal outlook.live.com/calendar shall process the file.

For Step1 I found a connector:

OneDrive: When a file is created (properties only)

Without knowing if that is a suitable connector

I have no idea, which connector would be able to import that file into outlook.live.com

    I found the answer to query1 and query2

    Query1:

    Office 365 Outlook and outlook.live.com is not the same thing.

    outlook.live.com has the Connector name Outlook.com

    Query2:

    OneDrive: When a file is created (properties only) may not be the best suitable connector.

    It has access to file properties, but not the file content

    OneDrive: When a file is created - might be more appropriate

    Processing the file is still a question mark

     

    I found a work around: Outlook.com Send an email (V2) is able to send me the file as attachment then I am able to manually insert it into the Calendar

    I still have to figure out if the email attachment could automatically be processed
