Folder ACL exceeds allowed size
When trying to add a user as "Reviewer" to the calendar of a shared mailbox by
Add-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity <UserPrincipalName_SharedMailbox>:\Calendar -AccessRights Reviewer -User <UserPrincipalName_User>
PowerShell throws this error:
|Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.ACLTooBigException|Folder ACL exceeds allowed size. (|Microsoft.Exchange.Data.Storage.ACLTooBigException|Folder ACL exceeds allowed size.)
The shared mailbox currently has 221 entries in the ACL (including "Default" and "Anonymous").
I tried this with a different mailbox on a different tenant and ran into the same error.
Questions:
- Is there any documentation about this limitation?
- Is there a way to get around this limitation w/o putting all affected users in a group and assigning this group reviewer rights?

Hi
VasilMichev this worked for us in an OnPremise environment - now we are on Hybrid Mode and if the shared / room or resouce Mailbox is OnPrem and the Account is in Exchange Online it only works with individual rights. If we use mail enabled security groups - which reside in our local Active Directory - it doesn't work.- Every software has limits, in this case use (mail-enabled security) groups instead of adding each user individually.
