Calendar - Category - Colors
- Dec 03, 2017
The client doesn’t matter - the permissions the users have on the calendars is the key. If they don’t have high enough permissions, they won’t see the colors. (If they have the same categories in their mailbox, they might see colors on those calendars.)
Hi Vasil, I've been searching via the Exchange admin center, found the 'Permissions' , but couldn't locate anything about 'Reviewer' permissions. Can you give me hint where to look after?
That's the folder level "reviewer" permission, sorry if I wasn't clear. If you want to set it on behalf of the user, use PowerShell and the Add/Set-MailboxFolderPermission cmdlet.

Hi Vasil , tx for the reply. Using PowerShell we were able to compare the Calendar settings for different users and discovered the origin of the confusion. It's clear now why it's working for some users are not for other users. The Calendar folder has Default (Org), Anonymous and Individual access settings.
They can be set at creation and afterwards modified by the user.
Setting the access level to 'View all details' allows other users to see the different colors.
It all seems very obvious now. Tx for your feedback.

Glad you got it working, and sorry for not being clear. I'll take a note and try to be more descriptive in the future :)
