Shared Outlook Calendars

[sql.sith]

Is it possible in Aqua Mail to view an Exchange calendar that has been shared with you by another user? I don't see how to in the app, and I don't see any discussion about it in the forums here except for one thread which never went anywhere.

In case you're interested in a use case (I always like stories) we use Outlook 365, and our department's vacation events are all on the same shared calendar so that everyone can see them. I can see them in Outlook, online in the OWA interface (or whatever it's called now). But in Android, they do not show up in the native Android calendar app, or in calendars downloaded by Aqua Mail, or even in the Microsoft Outlook app, at least as far as I can tell. Is there a way to use shared calendars in Aqua Mail?

Thanks,
Chris

Here is something to try:

Add a new EWS account into AquaMail (with your credentials) and on account setup screen, after entering your login / password, press Manual rather than next -- and enter "shared mailbox" below the login.

I know it works for "real" shared accounts, but not sure if it's going to work for Calendar -- or maybe account setup will fail right when the app tries to access *mail* folders.

So it's just something to try, not tested, not confirmed, not sure if going to work at all.

And a completely different idea -- there are calendar apps out there (in Play) which are capable of actual calendar sync.

That is, they don't just show what's stored in system Calendar database, but actually "talk to servers".

Maybe there are some that will let you access a calendar "shared with you"...
