How to allow others to view or edit your calendar items/meetings in Outlook?
For example, you want to allow other Exchange users to view or edit calendar items or meetings in your Outlook calendar, how could you set the permissions? There are two solutions to get it done!
- Allow others to view or edit default calendar items/meetings with Delegate Access
- Allow others to view or edit any calendar items/meetings with Folder properties
Allow others to view or edit default calendar items/meetings with Delegate Access
You can allow other Exchange users to view or edit your Outlook folders by the "Delegate Access" feature in Outlook, including the default calendar folder.
1. Click "File" > "Info" > "Account Settings" > "Delegate Access".
2. In the opening Delegates dialog box, click the "Add" button.
3. In the Add Users dialog box, add the Exchange users you want to allow to view or edit the default calendar items into the "Add" box, and click the "OK" button.
4. In the Delegate Permissions dialog box, select a permission level from the "Calendar" drop-down list, select "None" for other drop-down lists, and click the "OK" buttons successively to close both dialog boxes.
Notes:
(1) To allow others to only view your calendar, select "Reviewer"; to allow editing, select "Author" or "Editor".
(2) To prevent others from viewing private items, uncheck the "Delegate can see my private items" option.
(3) Delegates can open and view your calendar easily with this method.
Automatically forward every email to the specified recipient in Outlook
Generally speaking, you can set a rule to automatically forward emails to specified recipients. However, configuring a custom rule manually is time-consuming. Now, we introduce the Auto Forward feature of Kutools for Outlook, which allows you to set auto-forwarding rules with only several clicks.

Allow others to view or edit any calendar items/meetings with Folder properties
To allow others to view or edit a calendar you manually created, you can change the calendarβs properties.
1. In the "Calendar" view, select the calendar on the Navigation Pane, and click "Folder" > "Calendar Permissions".
2. In the Calendar Properties dialog box, click the "Add" button.
3. In the Add Users dialog box, add the Exchange user into the "Add" box, and click "OK".
4. Keep the new user selected, choose a permission level from the "Permission Level" drop-down list, and click "OK". See screenshot:

Notes:
(1) To allow others to only view the calendar, select "Free/Busy time", "Free/Busy time, subject, location", or "Reviewer"; to allow editing, select "Author", "Editor", or other options.
(2) You can also set a custom permission by checking options under "Read", "Delete Items", "Write", and "Other" sections.
