    How to View a Delegated Calendar on Roundcube<\/h2>\n

    In order to view a delegated calendar on Roundcube, you must add the calendar owner\u2019s calendar to the delegate\u2019s Roundcube account. To do so, perform the following steps:<\/p>\n

    Get the calendar owner\u2019s calendar URL<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. \n

      Log in to the calendar owner\u2019s Webmail account.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    2. \n

      Ensure that you are in the Webmail<\/em> interface.<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        If this is the first log in, the Webmail<\/em> interface will appear.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        If you are in the Roundcube interface, click cPanel Webmail Home<\/em>. The Webmail<\/em> interface will appear.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Under the Edit Your Settings<\/em> section in the Webmail<\/em> interface, click Configure Calendar and Contacts Client<\/em>. The Calendar and Contacts<\/em> interface will appear.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Scroll to the Direct URLs for Calendars and Contacts<\/em> section. Find the Calendar<\/em> row in the Secure SSL\/TLS URLs<\/em> table.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Copy the URL under the URL<\/em> column for the Calendar<\/em> item in the table.
        \n<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Add the calendar owner\u2019s calendar to the delegate\u2019s Roundcube calendar<\/h3>\n
          \n
        1. \n

          Log in to the calendar delegate\u2019s Webmail account.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        2. \n

          Ensure that you are in the Roundcube<\/em> interface.<\/p>\n

            \n
          • \n

            If this is the first log in, the Webmail<\/em> interface will appear. If Roundcube is your default webmail client, you can click the Roundcube logo under the Open your inbox<\/em> section. Otherwise, you can select the Roundcube logo from the Change your webmail client<\/em> section. The Roundcube interface will appear.<\/p>\n

              \n
            • To open your Inbox every time that you log in to Webmail, select the Open my inbox when I log in<\/em> checkbox.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
            • \n

              In the Roundcube interface, click Calendar<\/em> on the left menu. The calendar interface will appear.
              \n<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              In the Roundcube Calendar<\/em> interface, navigate to Calendars<\/em> at the top of the interface. Click the menu ( ) icon. A menu will appear.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Select Add Calendar<\/em> from the menu. The Create new calendar<\/em> interface will appear.
              \n<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              In the Properties<\/em> section, enter the calendar owner\u2019s calendar name in the Name<\/em> text box.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Paste the calendar owner\u2019s calendar URL (that you copied in step 5 from the previous section) in the CalDAV URL<\/em> text box.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Adjust the calendar color and whether to show reminders in the Settings<\/em> section.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Under Authentication<\/em>, enter the username and password of the calendar delegate<\/strong> CalDAV digest. This is the same as their Webmail username and password.<\/p>\n

              <\/p>\n<\/li>\n

            • \n

              Click Save<\/em>. The Roundcube Calendar<\/em> interface will automatically upload the calendar owner\u2019s calendar.<\/p>\n

              \n
              Note:<\/div>\n
              \n

              You will see calendar events for the current week.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

              How to test the calendar delegation<\/h2>\n

              To test the delegation, perform the following steps:<\/p>\n

                \n
              1. \n

                Have the calendar owner create an event on their calendar. The calendar delegate should be able to view the event from their own Roundcube Calendar<\/em> interface.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

              2. \n

                Calendar delegates with permission to edit the calendar can perform the following actions:<\/p>\n

                  \n
                • \n

                  Edit an event<\/strong> \u2014 Click the event. A window will appear with the event details. Click Edit<\/em> to edit the event.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                • \n

                  Add an event<\/strong> \u2014 Double click anywhere on the calendar. A New event<\/em> interface will appear. Fill out the relevant information. Ensure that the user selects the calendar owner\u2019s calendar from the Calendar<\/em> menu in that window. Once completed, click Save<\/em>. The event will appear in both the calendar delegate\u2019s and calendar owner\u2019s Roundcube Calendar<\/em> interface.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
