Access permissions determine what a user can do on a sub-calendar.
For example, a read-only permission allows a user to view the events on a sub-calendar, but not to add or modify them. A modify permission allows a user to modify, create, and delete calendar events. An add-only permission allows a user to add events, but not modify or delete existing events.
Teamup supports nine permission levels: The eight below plus the full administrator rights:
Permissions are set by the calendar administrator when granting calendar access to account-based users or with shareable calendar links. For each user or link, the administrator assigns the appropriate permissions. Thus, access to a shared calendar can be customized to grant different permission levels for each sub-calendar if necessary.

The 9 permission types
Let’s dive into what you can do with each permission type.
Administrator
All permissions and is the only permission level allowing access to the Settings interface of the calendar, where the calendar is configured and all access links are stored. Use this permission level with great caution, as it provides complete control over the calendar. To prevent accidental usage, the administrator permission is not in the drop-down menu with other permissions settings. It is in a separate section of the dialog for creating a calendar link; to include administrator permission for any calendar, check the Yes box in this section.
Be sure to read what you need to know about the administrator accesss, and what to do to improve the security of your calendar data.
Modify
View, modify, create and delete calendar events.
Read-only
View calendar events including details but can not make changes.
Read-only, no details
View calendar with events marked as reserved time blocks but no further event details. No changes are allowed.
Add-only
Allows adding new events, can only read but not modify any existing events. Newly added events can be modified only during the current browser session (up to approximately 30 minutes).
Add-only, no details
Same as Add-only but the details of any existing events are hidden (marked as reserved).
Modify-my-events / Modify-from-same-link
- If the user is accessing the calendar as an account-based user: They can add new event or modify existing events that they created themselves but can only read and not modify any existing events created by other users.
- If the user is accessing the calendar via a sharable calendar link: They can add new events and modify any existing events that were created via the same link but can only read and not modify any existing events created via other calendar links.
Modify-my-events, no details / Modify-from-same-link, no details
Similar to above: Add new events and modify any existing events that are created by the same user or via the same link, but the details of any events created by other users will be hidden (marked as reserved).
Not shared
The sub-calendar will not be visible or accessible at all for that user or user group.
