You can now share calendars with people who do not have access to your calendar in Outlook. Below we will explain how to share a calendar and what the implications are for the calendar and the users.

Calendar sharing works both on Space and Macro calendars.

A shared calendar is bound to your login, so other users will see it with the same permissions. When you decide to log out, it might break the calendars for other users of Confluence.
