Calendar processing rules

Some sane defaults:

Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity "Meeting Room" -DeleteAttachments $false -DeleteComments $false -DeleteSubject $false
 -AddOrganizerToSubject $false

Check current processing settings:

Get-CalendarProcessing -Identity "Meeting Room" | fl

Change default permissions on a calendar:

Set-MailboxFolderPermission meetingroom@company.com:\Calendar -user Default -AccessRights LimitedDetails

Publishing calendar

View current status. Look for PublishEnabled. If it is enabled, you can grab the urls from PublishedCalendarUrl or PublishedICalUrl.

Get-MailboxCalendarFolder room@company.com:\Calendar | fl

If it's just showing free/busy times, you might need to make a sharing policy that allows sharing with anonymous web users.

New-SharingPolicy -Name "Anonymous" -Domains 'Anonymous: CalendarSharingFreeBusySimple' -Enabled $true
Set-Mailbox room@company.com -SharingPolicy "Anonymous"

Some more permission changes:

Set-MailboxFolderPermission room@company.com:\calendar -User Anonymous -AccessRights reviewer
Set-MailboxCalendarFolder -Identity room@company.com:\calendar -DetailLevel limitedDetails
