Outlook - Calendar delegation Tutorial
In this video, you will learn about calendar delegation in Microsoft 365. The video covers how to delegate your email messages, events, contacts, tasks, and more with other users in your organization.
Delegation allows you to grant permission to another person, called a delegate, to receive and respond to email messages and meeting requests on your behalf.
You can also grant additional permissions for your delegate to read, create, or edit items in your account.
To add a delegate, go to the File tab, click on Account Settings, and choose Delegate Access.
From there, you can search for the person's name in the address book and select different permissions for each module.
You have the flexibility to change or remove your delegations whenever you want by visiting the settings of your account.
This tutorial will help you effectively manage your calendar and improve collaboration within your organization.
