Microsoft has released a new build to Office Insiders on macOS. The latest update, 20052001, brings new features to the Outlook app, alongside performance and bug fixes.
You’ll now be able to view, edit and find contacts from the same location within Outlook. It will simplify how you can manage a contact. Outlook can now also suggest times for a meeting that works for other people involved, and you can now mark an event as Private through a new toolbar button.
You can install the new build by going to File>Account>Update Options> Update Now in any Office program (you need to be an Office Insider).
People view and Contacts support
View, add, edit, find, and delete contacts all from the same place. Explore contacts that are important to you and those you may want to follow up with.

Event Compose – Mark as Private
The event compose toolbar now has a [Mark as Private] command.
