Microsoft 365 - Request a Resource
There are times when it is better to have a unique calendar account created instead of creating a calendar within your own personal Office 365 account. A resource account is created/deleted by an administrator. You also have the ability to control/manage many additional calendar features which do not exist for personal calendars.
This document will explain the process for requesting a resource calendar within Office 365.
Important: Only domain administrators can create resource calendars. You will need to make a request to create a resource. Domain administrators will be able to create the resource using the process outlined here: Microsoft 365 - Create, edit, or delete a Resource Account.
