Version 6.4.0

Full Microsoft Graph Support

Microsoft will retire Exchange Web Services (EWS) by April 2027, making Microsoft Graph the strategic and supported platform for Microsoft 365 integrations going forward.

Over the past two years, OnTime has been steadily transitioning core functionality from EWS to Microsoft Graph. With OnTime 6.4, all Microsoft 365 functionality is now fully supported through Microsoft Graph, providing long-term compatibility with Microsoft's roadmap, enhanced security alignment, improved scalability, and a modern foundation for future development.

Organizations currently using EWS can continue to do so while Microsoft maintains support for the platform. However, with version 6.4, customers can begin planning and executing their transition to Microsoft Graph at their own pace, well ahead of Microsoft's EWS retirement deadline.

SHARE MY TIME- FOR ALL REGISTRED ONTIME USERS

Share My Time is included in the licenses for all registered OnTime Group users and therefore you can start using it right after upgrading to version 6.4 of OnTime group calendar.

Share My Time allows users to grant external parties access to your calendar, allowing them to view your availability and schedule meetings with you without having to see your actual schedule. Eliminating the need for endless back-and-forth emails when trying to find a suitable meeting time.

Step 1: customise and distribute the link

•  Tailor your link to suit your preferences. Set parameters such as minimum lead time or rolling days.
•  Distribute the link through your website, direct messages, email footer, and more—the possibilities are limitless

Step 2: Recipient chooses a time 

• The recipient of the link can then view your availability and select their preferred meeting time from the options you have provided.

Step 3: Meeting confirmed

• You have the flexibility to customise your booking link to accept bookings either manually or automatically.
• Once you accept the meeting is confirmed, and your recipient receives a confirmation email to ensure a seamless experience for all parties involved.

Share My Time will be available for all registered OnTime users, but with different features available depending on your commitment.
