Anyone please advise me about sharing & request permission of calendar ? If I want to request permission to view recipient’s calendar if I’m correct previously I can do that by go to Calendar --> Share Calendar then the Sharing request will be pop up as you can see in the left side  but right now when I click share calendar in order to request permission to view someone’s calendar it’s showing otherwise and there is no Sharing request calendar as shown in the right side of picture attached as well as MS Office Version

    Hello theyounggun,

    Regarding this feature, based on my experience, in new version of Outlook for Microsoft 365, this option is no longer available.

    Instead, we can only share our calendar via modifying calendar permission: Share your Microsoft 365 or Outlook.com calendar with people inside or outside your organization.

     

    By default, every internal user’s calendar opens free/busy permission to entire organization. If the recipient is internal user, you could try to add it in Outlook to see if you can see his free/busy time.

    Regarding “Request Permission to view Recipient's Calendar” , I understand that this feature is very important to you, therefore recommend you to submit a feedback in Outlook UserVoice: https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/322590-outlook-2016-for-windows?query=Request%20Permission%20to%20view%20Recipient%27s%20Calendar your time and understanding will be greatly appreciated.

    Best Regards,

    Anna

    Hello Anna,

    Thank you very much for your information and that what i want to hear from Microsoft to make 100% sure if my understanding is correct and then I can tell anyone who always ask me why they cannot send a request permission to recipient as they did it before.
