Office 365 (Apple Calendar 10.9) - Assign "Read/Write/Modify" Permissions to my Calendar

Best Effort Support Only

This document contains instructions on using a non-Microsoft email client, such as Apple Mail or Thunderbird. Microsoft does not recommend these clients for use with Office 365, and there are often significant limitations in client functionality as a result. Because of this, the DoIT Help Desk is only able to offer best effort support for these clients, and certain issues may require the use of a Microsoft client in order to be resolved. For more information on Office 365 client support, please see: Office 365 - Which clients/protocols will be supported?.

The following topics are covered:

---

• Permission Levels
• Assign permissions
• Modify permissions

Permission Levels:

• Read Only: Allows the user to view events in your calendar.
• Read & Create: Allows the user to view events as well as create them. The user can edit or delete events they created, but cannot edit or delete events created by someone else.
• Read & Write: Allows the user to both view events as well as create, delete, and edit them, regardless of who created the event.
