Booking Meetings

Filtering Private Meetings

Overview

Samna, our meeting room booking solution, interacts with Microsoft Exchange resources. By default, Exchange resources are configured to clear the private flag (RemovePrivateProperty parameter) for incoming private meeting requests. This results in private meetings not being kept as private in the Exchange resource's calendar.

For customers who want to maintain the privacy of meeting subjects in Samna, we need to adjust this setting.

Configuring Exchange Resources for Private Meetings

To ensure that private meeting subjects remain private in Samna, you need to modify the RemovePrivateProperty parameter for your Exchange resources. This can be done using PowerShell commands.

PowerShell Commands

To update all Exchange room resources:

Get-Mailbox | Where {$_.ResourceType -eq "Room"} | Set-CalendarProcessing -RemovePrivateProperty $False

To update a single resource:

Set-CalendarProcessing -Identity "RoomName" -RemovePrivateProperty $False

Replace "RoomName" with the actual name of the resource you want to update.

Understanding the RemovePrivateProperty Parameter

Valid inputs for this parameter are $true or $false.

The default value is $true, which clears the private flag.

Setting this parameter to $false ensures that the private flag sent by the meeting organizer remains as specified.
