Hello!

I have an app that creates Outlook events using the 'Office365Outlook.V4CalendarPostItem' function and want to create the events from a shared HR calendar and not from the user who is entering them in the app. Is there any way to tie them to a specific shared calendar?

Currently I am using: Lookup(Office365Outlook.CalendarGetTables().value,DisplayName="Calendar").Name

But this ties to the current users calendar and I would like to code it to always create the event from the shared calendar.

Thanks!

Hi @RachelPalya1,

You need to share the HR calendar with the other app users and set for them at least NonEditingAuthor rights to this calendar.

Then you need to find the calendar ID and the easiest way to achieve that is by using Microsoft Graph (you need rights to use that) : https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/graph-explorer# .The query you need to run is: https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/me/calendars (also you need to have rights on the desired calendar if it is not yours).

Here is an example to query using Graph:
