    Hi,

     

    I have it working now.

     

    This how it worked for me (but i don't know if there is also an alternative solution).

     

    - Get data-> Exchange online-> entered the mailaddress from the colleague who shared his agenda with me

    - select Microsoft account, entered my credentials

    - Select calendar 

    At this point I received the following error message: 

    DataSource.Error: ErrorItemNotFound: The specified object was not found in the store., The process failed to get the correct properties.
Details:
DataSourceKind=Exchange
DataSourcePath=[mail address from the colleague]
Details=

    to solve this I let my colleague set the right ons his mailbox to show the folder.

Hi P-2019 ,

 

Did you have to fill in mailaddress AND password of the shared outlook account or mailaddress was enough to connect to the shared calender. I tried with shared calender and visible map as you suggested but still got the Error.

        - Select calendar
