the outlook link changed a bit – the described here is not working anymore (unclear when microsoft did the changes).
the url should not be “https://outlook.office.com/calendar/0/deeplink/compose” but “https://outlook.office.com/calendar/deeplink/compose”.
note the “0/” between calendar and deeplink is removed now.
