   Notes:

   • When sharing your calendar with someone who's not using Outlook on the web, for example, someone using Gmail, they'll only be able to accept the invitation using aMicrosoft 365 or an Outlook.com account.

   • ICS calendars are read-only, so even if you grant edit access to other people, they won't be able to edit your calendar.

   • How often your ICS calendar syncs depends on the email provider of the person you've shared it with.

   • Calendar items marked private are protected. Most people you share your calendar with see only the time of items marked private, not the title, location, or other details.Recurringseriesmarkedasprivatewillalsoshowtherecurrencepattern.
