Permission Options


 Can view when I'm busy  User can see blocks of "Busy" time on calendar but cannot see any details of the events
 Can view titles and locations  User can see time, subject, and location of items on calendar but cannot see other details such as attendees, notes, or attachments
 Can view all details  User is able to see time, subject, location, attendees, notes, and attachments
 Can edit  User can create, read, edit, and delete all items, regardless of who created them. Events that invite the resource give the option to be accepted by anyone with this permission level. When an attendee is added, a notice that you forwarded the meeting request to additional recipients will be sent to the resource. When editing an event and adding attendees (at least when a room is invited), it will only update if the updates are sent to everyone.
 Delegate  Delegates act on behalf of another person. If delegate access has been granted, copies of meeting requests will go to the delegate and the delegate can accept or deny the requests for the resource. A notification will be sent to the organizer saying that you have replied on behalf of the resource. This level of access should only be used if someone is completely managing the calendar of someone else.
7. Click Share once you have chosen the level of permission you would like to grant.

Note: The share notification sent to the user you are sharing with does not include their level of access.
