Outlook on the Web - Working with Other Calendars

Outlook Web App allows you to add other calendars to your calendar view. Depending on the permission levels you have been granted, you will be able to act on these permissions (free/busy, read, write, etc.)

If you have received an invitation to share someone else's calendar, you can select the link in the invitation to add their calendar to your calendar view. You can also go to your calendar to add other people's calendars to your view.
