Outlook for Windows: Shared calendar improvements

Microsoft have updated the Office 365 roadmap with some upcoming improvements to calendar sharing in Office 365.

Apart from being simpler, these new calendar updates are also great for separate companies who use Office 365 and share resources like meeting rooms.

The current external sharing options are difficult to configure and only update every 3 hours. However these new changes will allow for a simple, instantly syncing calendar sharing experience. Both internally and with external Office 365 & Outlook.com users.

From Microsoft’s notes

This update came from our Azure function which monitors the Office 365 Roadmap, generates an image and triggers a Microsoft Flow Approval to collect our input. See our knowledge base for more examples of our business process automation.
