Adding delegates to O365 Calendar (Office Web App)

Step by step process of inviting another user in your organization to be a delegate for your Office 365 Calendar.

Important:

For best results, DoIT suggests adding delegates to your Calendar via the Outlook Web App rather than using the Outlook desktop application. DoIT also suggests using OWA to create, modify, and delete Calendar events.
