Delegating Calendar Access and Setting Up Calendars in cPanel Make it Rain Paper

You can delegate access to a user's calendars by visiting the Calendar feature found in the cPanel interface (cPanel >> Home >> Email >> Calendar Delegation). This feature is particularly useful for administrators and allows you to:

• Create an account for a resource (e.g., a conference room) and allow others to reserve it.
• Enable a manager to view their subordinates' calendars.
• Allow an assistant to manage a manager's calendar.

• Username: Your cPanel account user or webmail user.
• cPanel account user: example
• Webmail user: user@example.com
• Server: The full URL to the user's calendar or contacts.
• Autodiscovery: example.com
• Non-Autodiscovery cPanel user: https://example.com:2080/rpc/principals/example
• Non-Autodiscovery webmail user: https://example.com:2080/rpc/principals/user@example.com
• Password: The cPanel account or webmail user's password.

You can find this information in cPanel's Calendars and Contacts interface (cPanel >> Home >> Email >> Calendars and Contacts).
