  • 27 minutes to read

Use the new Exchange admin center (EAC) to create, modify, and manage your email/delegation roles in your Exchange Online organization.

There are two types of resources that the administrator can manage:

  • room mailboxis a resource mailbox assigned to a physical location, such as B. a conference room, auditorium, or training room. Once an administrator creates room mailboxes, users can easily book rooms by including room mailboxes in meeting requests.

  • gear mailboxis a resource mailbox assigned to a resource that is not location-specific, such as a B. laptop, projector, microphone, or company car. After an administrator creates a team mailbox, users can reserve the device simply by including the appropriate team mailbox in a meeting request. You can use the new EAC and Exchange Online PowerShell to create a team mailbox or change team mailbox properties.

Manage resource mailboxes in the classic Exchange admin center

A room mailbox is a resource mailbox assigned to a physical location, such as a conference room, auditorium, or training room. Once an administrator creates room mailboxes, users can easily book rooms by including room mailboxes in meeting requests.

An equipment mailbox is a resource mailbox assigned to a non-site-specific resource, such as a laptop, projector, microphone, or company car. After an administrator creates a team mailbox, users can reserve the device simply by including the appropriate team mailbox in a meeting request. You can use the classic Exchange admin center and Exchange Online PowerShell to create a team mailbox or change team mailbox properties.

For more information, seeRecipients in Exchange Online.

What do you need to know before starting?

  • Estimated time to fill a room mailbox: 5-10 minutes.

  • You must be granted permission before performing this procedure or procedures. To see what permissions you need, see the "Recipients" entry inFunctional permissions in Exchange OnlineHe.

    Important

    If you're running Exchange Server in a hybrid scenario, make sure you create the room mailboxes in the correct place. Create your on-premises room mailboxes for your on-premises organization, and the room mailboxes for the Exchange Online side must be created in the cloud.

Create a room mailbox

Use the classic Exchange admin center to create a room mailbox

  1. In the classic Exchange admin center, go toContainer>resources.

    (Video) 19. Manage and Book Resource Mailbox in Exchange Online | Microsoft 365

  2. To create a room mailbox, clicknuevo Manage Resource Mailboxes in Exchange Online (1)>room mailbox.

  3. Use the options on the page to specify the settings for the new resource mailbox.

    • * Nombre room: Use this field to enter a name for the room mailbox. This is the name that appears in the list of resource mailboxes in the classic Exchange admin center and in your organization's address book. This name is required and cannot exceed 64 characters.

      Principal

      While there are other fields that describe the details of the room, such as location and capacity, you should summarize the key details in the room name using a consistent naming convention. Because? This way, users can easily see the details when they select the room from the address book in the meeting request.

    • * Email address: The mailbox of a room has an email address to receive reservation requests. The email address consists of an alias on the left side of the @ symbol, which must be unique in the forest, and your domain name on the right side. An email address is required.

    • Location,telephone,ability: These fields allow you to enter details about the room. However, as explained above, you can include some or all of this information in the room name for users to see.

  4. When you're done, clicksave not computerto create the room mailbox.

Once you've created your room's mailbox, you can edit it to update information about booking options, email information, and mailbox delegation. See Use the Classic Exchange Admin Center section below to change room mailbox properties.

Use Exchange Online PowerShell to create a room mailbox

This example creates a room mailbox with the following settings:

  • The mailbox name is ConfRoom1. This name is also used to create the email address for the room.
  • The display name in the Classic Exchange admin center and address book is Conference Room 1.
  • ORoomGenericNameThe switch indicates that this mailbox will be created as a room mailbox.
New Mailbox -Name ConfRoom1 -DisplayName "Conference Room 1" -Room

For detailed information on the syntax and parameters, seenew mailbox.

How do you know it worked?

There are several ways to ensure that you have successfully created the room mailbox:

  • In the classic Exchange admin center, go toContainer>resources. The new room mailbox appears in the mailbox list. Lowmailbox typeWho is the boyRoomGenericName.

  • In Exchange Online PowerShell, run the following command to display information about the new room mailbox.

    Get-Mailbox <name> | Format list name, recipient type details, primary SMTP address

Make a room list

If you are planning more than one hundred rooms or have already created more than one hundred rooms, use a room list to organize your rooms. If your company has multiple buildings with rooms that can be reserved for meetings, it may be helpful to create room lists for each building. Room lists are specially marked distribution groups that can be used in the same way as distribution groups. However, you can only create room lists using Exchange Online PowerShell.

Use Exchange Online PowerShell to create a room list

In this example, a room schedule is created for building 32.

New-DistributionGroup –Name „Building 32 Conference Rooms“ –OrganizationalUnit „contoso.com/rooms“ –RoomList

Use Exchange Online PowerShell to add a room to a room list

In this example, confroom3223 is added to the list of rooms in building 32.

Add-DistributionGroupMember - Identidade "Building 32 Conference Rooms" - Membro confroom3223@contoso.com

Use Exchange Online PowerShell to convert a distribution group to a list of rooms

In the past, you may have already created distribution groups that contained your conference rooms. You do not need to recreate them; we can quickly turn it into a list of rooms.

In this example, the distribution group that creates 34 conference rooms is converted to a list of rooms.

Set-DistributionGroup -Identity "Building 34 conference rooms" -RoomList

Change room mailbox properties

After you create a room mailbox, you can make changes and set additional properties by using the classic Exchange admin center or Exchange Online PowerShell.

Set-Mailbox "Conf Room 123" -DisplayName "Conf Room 31/123 (12)" -EmailAddresses SMTP:Rm33.123@contoso.com,smtp:rm123@contoso.com -ResourceCapacity 12

This example configures room mailboxes to schedule hold requests only during business hours and sets a maximum duration of 9 hours.

Get-Mailbox -ResultSize ilimitado -Filter "RecipientTypeDetails -eq 'RoomMailbox'" | Set-CalendarProcessing -ScheduleOnlyDuringWorkHours $true -MaximumDurationInMinutes 540

This example performs the following actions:

  • Oget userThe cmdlet finds all room mailboxes that correspond to private conference rooms.
  • OSet-CalendarProcessingThe cmdlet sends booking requests to a proxy named Robin Wood for acceptance or rejection.
  • OEstablecer-MailboxFolderPermissionThe cmdlet grants Robin the necessary calendar folder permissions on the private meeting room mailboxes.
$P = Get-User -ResultSize ilimitado -Filter "(RecipientTypeDetails -eq 'RoomMailbox') -and (DisplayName -like 'Private*')"$P | foreach {Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity $_.Identity -AllBookInPolicy $false -AllRequestInPolicy $true -ResourceDelegates "Robin Wood"}$P | foreach {Set-MailboxFolderPermission -Identidad "$_`:\Calendar" -Usuario "Robin Wood" -Editor de derechos de acceso -SharingPermissionFlags Delegate}

  • In the classic Exchange admin center, select the mailbox and clickto edit Manage Resource Mailboxes in Exchange Online (7)to view the changed property or function. Depending on the changed property, it may appear in the details pane of the selected mailbox.

  • Sin Exchange Online PowerShell, use oget mailboxcmdlet to review the changes. One benefit of using Exchange Online PowerShell is that you can view multiple properties for multiple mailboxes. In the example above, where reservation requests can only be scheduled during business hours and with a maximum duration of 9 hours, run the following command to verify the new values.
