Add an Event to a Shared Calendar

Updated on

As Content Managers learn of events that should be shared to a specific campus or to the whole organization, they add events to the shared calendar for that campus or for the Org.

This article describes how to add an event to a shared calendar.

There are two ways to add an event to a shared calendar. From the Shared Calendar  l   Invite the Shared Calendar.

From the Shared Calendar

1. Visit Outlook.

2. Click on the Calendar Icon.

3. Scroll down to People's calendars.

4. Select the shared calendar.

If you don't see the shared calendar, you need to add it. Click here to learn how to do so.

5. Click on the day and time you want to add the event to.

6. Add the Title of the event.

Make sure to add an emoji before the title and then one space. This helps a user delineate between events on the Intranet listing.

On a PC, click Windows Logo Key and the period button at the same time to have the emoji menu pop-up. On a mac, click Control, Command, and Space Bar at the same time.

7. Edit the time of your event.

8. Select the Location for your event.

If it's a Teams meeting, click More Options to add a Teams call, or if you already have a link, paste it directly into the Location field.

9. Enter a Description for the event.

10. Click Send.

Your event has been created and added to the Intranet calendar for that location or for all staff!
