Overview
You want to share a calendar with other users or groups within Kerio Connect to allow them to view or manage the events within. You require guidance on how to enable this sharing.
Solution
As with all content sharing within Kerio Connect, you can define both the target audience of the sharing and the rights of that audience.
Note: Unlike other shared content, providing “Editor” rights for a Calendar will allow the target audience to view, create, and delete all Calendar events. However, the editing of events is handled differently, as “Editors” can only modify Calendar events without other attendees.
Only the original owner can change events with more attendees. If this functionality is desired, you can instead use delegation, as delegates can edit your events with multiple users. For more information, refer to Configuring Delegation (On Behalf of) in Kerio Connect Client.
