Add another user's shared calendar #303

Closed tshaw-ic closed 5 years ago

tshaw-ic commented 5 years ago

My office uses O365 for email and calendar. I'm running Thunderbird 60.8.0 and Exchange Calendar 5.0.0-beta1. I was able to add my Outlook calendar to Thunderbird without issue, but I can't figure out how to add our shared calendar. As far as I can tell, the shared calendar is another user's primary or secondary calendar which they have shared access to with everyone else; I can't find it any shared folder of the server. The email inviting me to share this calendar had a file attached called "sharing_metadata.xml" which I've removed some personal information from and converted to .txt so I can upload it here. The all-caps strings are the redacted information. I'm hoping someone can figure out how I can find the shared calendar from this file. sharing_metadata_santized.txt

I haven't done this in years, but did find some very basic notes I made for myself... See if it works for you.

  1. add new calendar, on the network, and exchange compatible.
  2. use https://[FQDN of exhange web access]/ews/exchange.asmx fpr the network calendar server
  3. primary email address= email of shared calendar user.
  4. username = your user name
  5. domain = [(active directory) domain]
  6. share folder ID FolderId hex number from xml file invite

That's perfect, thank you so much!

For anyone else reading this, the URL in step 2 is the same as the URL I used to add my own Outlook calendar. For O365, that's https://outlook.office365.com/ews/exchange.asmx
