Making private meeting in shared mailbox calendar
Hello,
In the calendar of a shared mailbox we can't set a meeting to private. The lock-tile is greyed out. In the users own calendar the tile is available. Is there a setting for shared mailboxes that makes it possible to set meetings to private?
Kind regards,
Arjan
- That would depend on how you are accessing the shared mailbox and the permissions you have on it. With Full access permissions, you can use OWA > Open another mailbox > point to the shared mailbox > Calendar and create the private meeting as usual, the checkbox will be available.
- Hello VasilMichev,
Thanks for answering! In OWA it is indeed possible to make a private meeting. But we mainly/only work in Outlook. It is very inconvenient when you have to switch between Outlook and OWA for these types of meetings.
It isn't possible in Outlook to mark a meeting as private?- Only if you are accessing the mailbox directly, i.e. via File > Add account. https://www.michev.info/blog/post/3567/how-to-add-a-shared-mailbox-as-additional-account-in-outlook-2022-version
