Adding and Sharing Your Outlook/Exchange Calendar in GroupCal

This feature allows you to integrate your Outlook or Exchange calendars with GroupCal. By adding these accounts, you can fully manage your Outlook and/or Exchange accounts in GroupCal and also share them with others:

1. View all your Outlook/Exchange events in GroupCal side by side to your other calendars and events, allowing you a full view of your schedule.
2. Edit your Outlook/Exchange calendars and events directly within GroupCal, with seamless synchronization with your Outlook or Exchange accounts.
3. Share your Outlook/Exchange calendar with others. Any change you do is then automatically synced to others who you shared those calendars with, in real time.

Integrating your Outlook or Exchange calendars with GroupCal gives you a unified view of your schedule in GroupCal, eliminating the need to switch between different platforms. With bi-directional sync, any changes made in GroupCal automatically reflect in your original Outlook or Exchange calendar and vice versa. This ensures consistency and keeps your schedule updated across all platforms.
