Allow room calendar to be overbooked till a certain number?

Hello everyone, my first post here.   I have created a room calendar in Office 365 and I want it to be overbooked till (lets say) 5 meaning it can be booked by 5 of our staff without any rejection....

Depends on the details. You can play with the calendar processing settings of the mailbox and specify a maximum number of conflict instances via the corresponding parameter, but also take in consideration the ConflictPercentageAllowed value. Refer to the cmdlet help for more details: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/authenticationmethod-get?view=graph-rest-beta&tabs=http

 

Or just configure a delegate and have him manually approve individual instances as needed.

Thanks VasilMichev Vasil for responding. I know about the delegate feature but I want to automate this task and hence avoid doing it.

 

Ain't conflict and conflict % parameters meant for recurring bookings only or are they meant for standalone bookings also? Also, the link you have shared is for Microsoft Graph. You sure about the link?
