My team members can email the resource room, and then with some straightforward Flow logic (trigger when an event is added), it adds the event to the Calendar List. I am using this to emulate the older Sharepoint functionality of tying a mailbox to a Sharepoint Calendar. Thanks to everyone who commented previously for getting us here. This is a very useful functionality to unlock. Thanks for providing a clear, succinct description of those steps. After my initial post, I also noticed that the long string ID I plugged into the Flow changed itself to the default "Calendar" much like it does for any other mailbox, so the Powershell steps are probably not necessary. What you describe is exactly how I did it. Now if Microsoft would add a description field to the resource calendar items that people could view, I would be a very happy camper.Īwesome, I'm glad you figured it out as well. Microsoft may have added some of this functionality in the past months to flow, so I don't know if this was doable all along or has just become possible with some changes from Microsoft. Most say it can't be done, but it clearly can and I have now set a flow to notify two staff people 2 hour in advance of computer resource reservation. Poor instructions and conflicting information in forums even from Microsoft representatives. Once you figure it out it's not too bad, it is just not intuitive at all. So as I firm up the steps I plan to post a detailed description how I got this to work. For somebody new to this tool this probably is hard to follow and doesn't make much sense.
I compared this with the ID I obtained from the powershell commands and they were identical. I know this because if you save and then come back in to look at that same box, it will be populated with the crazy long ID string of that calendar. Once you do this, then when you select the drop down for selecting the calendar item, it is now using that resource calendar. You can now select that connector to be used as the trigger. Clicking on the three dots to the right, allows you to add an additional connector there and will prompt for the credentials. In my case it was "When an upcoming event is starting soon". To add the trigger connection for the resource you click on the triple dots next to the first flow step. It allows you to add owners, but not connections. But no, it only allows you to delete or view your connections. One would think that clicking on "Manage Connections" once in the connections window would allow one to add or assign new connections. By default it wants to use your own account as the connector.

Once I was able to add/change the password for the resource (thanks), then I found the convoluted way to add the resource connector to the flow. All I needed was to add a connector for the particular resource. I actually did not need to get the long ID string from PowerShell for the resource calendar. I finally got this to work, however a little differently then how you described. Also, from my experience, you are correct in thinking that if we can log in as the resource in Flow that the triggers or actions related to that mailbox should work correctly.
Found the resource room was in the User list in Admin center and I reset it like it was a normal, unlicensed account in the web app gui.
