Default calendar sharing permissions for all users in internal organization
Just to confirm what Adam said above, PowerShell is your only option here. And you have to run it periodically if you want to include any newly created users.

I found a script to set the default sharing policy for all users.
How can i implement a script that only affects the new users since the last run of the script?
Is there a way?- Zak_PierceJul 10, 2023Copper ContributorAre we still forced to use powershell to set sharing policies for users' calendars?

I am so surprised to find that I can control the default sharing experience of calendars with people outside the organization but not *within* the organization.
This means that if I have two organizations working closely together then I can set the default to be 'Can view titles and locations' and each organisation can see this level of detail in each other's calenders - but the co-workers in the same organization will only see free-busy. Unless, that is, each person manually changes the 'Inside your organization' sharing permission - or we have a PowerShell script run on a periodic basis to change people's internal sharing permission (with the attendant complexity of those people who have a legitimate reason to be excluded from the script making the change).
It seems like a significant oversign in the abilities of the Exchange Admin Center and sharing permissions. Does anyone know whether this is on the roadmap? (I wasn't finding many useful hits when I searched for the answer - which is why I've ended up here.)- SmokuTeamUpFeb 14, 2023Copper ContributorExactly, this just blows my mind. We've just made an org-wide step back from the whole sharing idea just because of the fact our non-technical administrators are not able to configure it in Exchange settings.
