Hello Simone,

Yes, it looks to be possible. The following forum threads should be helpful:

Thanks, I had already seen these articles. The problem is that I don't have outlook installed on the server. Is it possible to do the same thing by calling the exchange server? maybe with an api?

Hello Simone,

Sorry for the confusion, but your request is not related to Adaxes. It should be possible to establish a remote session to the server where Outlook is installed (e.g. using the Import-PSSession cmdlet) and execute the request there. For additional details and recommended approaches we suggest you to contact Microsoft support. They should be able to point you in the right direction.

sorry, I was not clear in the request. I need to create a scheduled task in adaxes where on a few days of the month send an appointment in the calendar of some users. It's possible? We have office 365 with exchange hybrid server.

Hello Simone,

Creating such a scheduled task is possible. However, the script is not related to Adaxes or Active Directory. That is why we mentioned that we won’t be able to help you with the script itself and it is recommended to contact Microsoft support. You can ask them to write a script that will just work in Windows PowerShell. Once you have it working, we can help you adjust the script to be executed in your scheduled task. For information on how to create scheduled tasks in Adaxes, have a look at the following tutorial: https://www.adaxes.com/tutorials_AutomatingDailyTasks_ScheduleTasksForActiveDirectoryManagement.htm.
