How to Add Calendar Permissions in Office 365 or Exchange Server Using PowerShell

Check the current calendar permissions:

Get-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity user1@domain.com:\calendar

In order to grant user2 the permission to view and edit user1 calendar items, run the following command:

Add-MailboxFolderPermission -Identity user1@domain.com:\calendar -user user2@domain.com -AccessRights Editor

When managing calendar and Outlook folder permissions, you can use the following predefined permissions level roles:

• Owner — gives full control of the mailbox folder: read, create, modify, and delete all items and folders. Also, this role allows to manage item’s permissions;
• PublishingEditor — read, create, modify, and delete items/subfolders (all permissions, except the right to change permissions);
• Editor — read, create, modify, and delete items (can’t create subfolders);
• PublishingAuthor — create, and read all items/subfolders. You can modify and delete only items you create;
• Author — create and read items. Edit and delete own items;
• NonEditingAuthor — full read access, and create items. You can delete only your own items;
• Reviewer — read folder items only;
• Contributor — create items and folders (can’t read items);
• AvailabilityOnly — read Free/Busy info from the calendar;
• LimitedDetails — view availability data with calendar item subject and location;
• None — no permissions to access folders and files.
