    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 Anonymous ,

 

Have you followed the correct steps?

 

Dp you also have read rights on the calendar?

 

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

- Select Microsoft account, enter your own credentials

- Select calendar

 

Regards,

    I never got this to work either. Think its an Outlook privacy issue (even though the calendar is shared with me I can't pull it up) rather than a BI issue. Still getting the same error as in the original post in this thread.
