Calendar Delegation

Log in to your cPanel>> Mail section >>  Email calendar delegation

You can delegate access to a user’s calendar to another user by visiting our Calendar feature found at the cPanel’s interface (cPanel >> Home >> Email >> Calendar Delegation).

This is useful for administrators and you can use that to:

• create an account for a resource (for example, a conference room) and allow others to reserve it.
• allow a manager to view their subordinates’ calendars.
• allow an assistant to manage a manager’s calendar for them.

To set up calendar and contact applications in macOS® Catalina, El Capitan, Sierra, High Sierra, and Mojave:

Click Launchpad, and then click System Preferences.

Click Internet Accounts.

Or use a combination of the command + tab keys, then type in “Internet Accounts“.

Click Add Other Account.

Click CalDAV Account to add a calendar account, or CardDAV Account to add a contacts account.

Click Create.

To complete the setup of your account, enter your information in the appropriate text boxes.

For calendar accounts (CalDAV), you must select Automatic from the Account Type menu.

If you use other calendars or contacts applications that support these protocols, you might be able to access your calendars and contacts from those applications.

Your application must support the CalDAV and CardDAV protocols though steps will definitely vary between applications.

Enter the following information:

• 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 account user — example = www.abc.co
• Non-Autodiscovery webmail user — https://example.com:2080/rpc/principals/user@example.com

If your application does not support Autodiscovery, use the non-autodiscovery URL.

• Password — The cPanel account or webmail user’s password.

Do remember that you can access this information in cPanel’s Calendars and Contacts interface (cPanel >> Home >> Email >> Calendars and Contacts).
