The short answer is No.

Here is why:
  • Amazon Chime is not currently able to associate an iCloud calendar entry with scheduled calls because their calendar invites are not tied to a specific email account, but rather to an internal account created and maintained by their service.
  • When using iCloud, instead of the calendar event being generated by something like you@normalemailaddress.com, it gets generated by something like:

  • Because Amazon Chime uses the email address to determine who should get notified and invited to our service, we cannot use the id generated by iCloud.
