Share a resource with external persons

Expand

If you want to share one or more resources with an external person you can create an iCal link and allow external bookings:

  • Create an iCal link:
    To publish a room resource by iCal you need to have access to the Exchange online PowerShell module

    You can use the following command to publish the resource for one year:

    Adjust the identity with the Mail of the room.

    Code Block
    Connect-ExchangeOnline
    Code Block
    Set-MailboxCalendarFolder -Identity room@myorganization.com:\calendar -PublishEnabled $true -DetailLevel Full -PublishDateRangeTo OneYear -PublishDateRangeFrom OneYear

    To get the link of the share, you need the following command:

    Code Block
    Get-MailboxCalendarFolder -Identity room@myorganization.com:\calendar
Image Added
  • Allow bookings from outside:
    For all resources:

    Code Block
    Get-Mailbox| where {$_.RecipientTypeDetails -eq "RoomMailbox"} | Set-CalendarProcessing -ProcessExternalMeetingMessages $true

    Only for one resource:

    Code Block
    Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity room@myorganization.com -ProcessExternalMeetingMessages $true

Once you have done this, you can share the iCal link with an external person. The external people can then invite the meeting room as attendee. The room will then accept the booking (if it is free) and the ROOMZ display will also show the appointment correctly.

Note

Please note that if you enter the meeting in the shared calendar, the room will not be booked. The room must be invited to the meeting as a participant. Otherwise, the meeting is only entered in Outlook

For Outlook client users, if you receive an error when adding the calendar, please follow these steps; otherwise, the calendar will not be displayed:

  1. In Outlook, select File >Account Settings >Account Settings.  You will see a list of your email accounts.

  2. Select the Microsoft Exchange account that you use to manage someone else's calendar and choose Change...

  3. Choose More Settings, followed by the Advanced tab.

  4. Uncheck the checkbox next to: Turn on shared calendar improvements, see the print screen below:

  1. Restart Outlook and try again to add the calendar.

I have added a new resource in the Roomz portal, but it does not communicate, whereas the previous ones communicate correctly

Expand

When adding a new resource in the Roomz portal, Roomz may not have access to the resource. Follow these steps to resolve the issue:

1. If you are using Delegation

If you are in delegation mode, you need to grant full access to the room to the user logged into the Roomz portal. Please refer to the following documentation point 3️⃣ : https://roomzio.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SUP/pages/385122305/Microsoft+365+Delegation+Permission#3%EF%B8%8F%E2%83%A3-Access-rights-%26-calendar-information

2. If you are using Application Mode

If you are in application mode, you must add the new room to the appropriate security group, as detailed in the documentation at point 4️⃣ : https://roomzio.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SUP/pages/529924106/Microsoft+365+Application+Permission+Security+group#4%EF%B8%8F%E2%83%A3-Add-a-new-resource-to-the-Mail-enabled-security-group
