Allow staff to view all details on all calendars

Hello all,

 

Is there an easy way I can give all staff the "Can view all details" permission on all staff calendars? 

 

Secondly, is there a way this can be set as default for new starters?

 

Thanks

  • Define easy? 🙂 This PowerShell snippet does it:

    $calendars = Get-Mailbox -RecipientTypeDetails UserMailbox | Get-MailboxFolderStatistics | ? {$_.FolderType -eq "Calendar"} | select @{n="Identity"; e={$_.Identity.Replace("\",":\")}}

    $calendars | % {Set-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity $_.Identity -User Default -AccessRights LimitedDetails}

    There's no way to pre-set this for new mailboxes, you will have to run the Set-MailboxFolderPermission against them as needed.

      This is absolutely asinine that we have to do it this way.

       

      We just migrated from Google, which has the option to set the default sharing and change existing ones. I thought Microsoft was supposed to be more powerful. What a joke.

      VasilMichev I'm pretty sure the "limitedDetails" is NOT what corresponds to "View all details" in Outlook the OP asked (and why I'm here).

      It's quite confusing that using Outlook is not the same as setting it in Exchange 😞
