/claim #21050

  • feat #21050 (Outlook Cache Bounty-to-Hire)

Key Changes:

  • Added caching to getAvailability() - checks cache before Microsoft Graph API calls
  • Integrated with existing CalendarCache - uses standard getCachedAvailability() and upsertCachedAvailability()
  • Added webhook handler - invalidates cache when calendar events change

Visual Demo (For contributors especially)

  • Performance Improvement:

  • Before: Every request → Microsoft Graph API → 1-3 seconds

  • After: Cache hit → 50-100ms | Cache miss → API call + cache storage

How should this be tested? Setup:

  • Enable calendar-cache feature flag for test team
  • Connect Outlook calendar via Office 365 integration

Expected Results:

  • Cache hit: Sub-100ms response times
  • Cache miss: Normal API response + cache storage
  • Feature flag disabled: No caching, normal behavior
  • Webhook: Cache invalidation on calendar changes

Summary by cubic

Added intelligent caching for Microsoft Outlook calendar availability, reducing API calls and speeding up response times. Cache is automatically invalidated when calendar events change.

  • New Features
    • Caches Outlook calendar availability using the existing CalendarCache system.
