O365 Groups Calendar Viewable to Non-members

Hi,

 

Is it possible to have an O365 Groups calendar made viewable to non-members?

  • Technically speaking, they are visible to anyone in the company (assuming a Public group). You can confirm this via the Get-MailboxFolderPermission cmdlet:

     

    Get-MailboxFolderPermission group:\Calendar -GroupMailbox
    FolderName User AccessRights
    ---------- ---- ------------
    Calendar Default {AvailabilityOnly}
    Calendar Anonymous {None}
    Calendar Member@local {Editor}
    Calendar Owner@local {Editor}

     

    The Calendar however will not automatically show up under the Calendar pane -> All Group calendars node, unlike Calendars for Groups you've joined, and you need to add it manually.

      When I add the Group Calendar to Sharepoint Online as a web part, non-members receive a message stating they must be a member of the group to view the calendar.

      How do I change it so when it's added as a web part in Sharepoint Online, non-members can view the details?

        Ahem, you never mentioned SharePoint in your original post. My reply was based on the assumption access will happen via the Outlook client or OWA. I'm not entirely sure how it will work in a webpart.
