## Configuring Schedule online meetings in Outlook pack {% hint style="info" %} Adapt these suggested configuration steps to edit and customize content according to your organizational needs. {% endhint %} Follow these steps to install and configure content: * Before configuration - Install library pack content from [Nexthink Library](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/nexthink-library) * [Step 1 - Set up a registered Microsoft Entra ID app and configure Microsoft Graph API connector credentials](#step-2-set-up-a-registered-microsoft-entra-id-app-and-configure-microsoft-graph-api-connector-creden) * [Step 2 - Configure global parameters](#step-3-configure-global-parameters) * [Step 3 - Examine the custom JavaScript code of the Functions thinklets](#step-3-examine-the-custom-javascript-code-of-the-functions-thinklets) ### Step 1 - Set up a registered Microsoft Entra ID app and configure Microsoft Graph API connector credentials Refer to the following documentation page to register the Microsoft Entra ID application and configure the appropriate connector credentials in Nexthink: [Entra ID integration for workflows](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/library-packs/faq/entra-id-integration-for-workflows). For this workflow, the registered Entra ID application must be granted the following permissions: | Permission type | Least privileged permissions | | --------------- | ---------------------------- | | Application | Calendars.ReadWrite | {% hint style="info" %} This workflow has been tested using the Application permission type. Different environments require different permissions. You should assign permissions according to your environment and know the risks involved. {% endhint %} Refer to the Graph REST API documentation from Microsoft for more information: * [Graph REST API documentation - GetSchedule](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/calendar-getschedule?view=graph-rest-1.0\&tabs=http) * [Graph REST API documentation - CreateEvent](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/graph/api/user-post-events?view=graph-rest-1.0\&tabs=http) ### Step 2 -Configure global parameters There are the following global parameters in this workflow: * Timezone * Participant * Subject * Content * meetingDurationMinutes * Location The table below outlines the purpose and default value of each parameter. | Name | Default value | Description | | ---------------------- | ---------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- | | Timezone | Central Europe Standard Time | Name of the time zone | | Participant | N/A | Email address of the participant | | Subject | Appointment | This text would appear in the subject field of the meeting. | | Content | Meeting description | This text would appear in the description field of the meeting. | | meetingDurationMinutes | 60 | The duration of the meeting is in minutes. | | Location | Default location | This text would appear in the location field of the meeting. | ### Step 3 - Examine the custom JavaScript code of the Functions thinklets #### 'Start and End date' function The thinklet contains the following custom JavaScript code: ``` function nextBusinessDay(fromDate = new Date()) { const nextDay = new Date(fromDate); do { nextDay.setDate(nextDay.getDate() + 1); } while ([0, 6].includes(nextDay.getDay())); return nextDay; } function toLocalISOString(date, offsetHours = 0, offsetMinutes = 0) { const offsetDate = new Date(date); offsetDate.setHours(offsetHours, offsetMinutes, 0, 0); // Build timedate string: 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS' return offsetDate.getFullYear() + '-' + String(offsetDate.getMonth() + 1).padStart(2, '0') + '-' + String(offsetDate.getDate()).padStart(2, '0') + 'T' + String(offsetDate.getHours()).padStart(2, '0') + ':' + String(offsetDate.getMinutes()).padStart(2, '0') + ':00'; } const nextDay = nextBusinessDay(); outputs.start = toLocalISOString(nextDay, 9); outputs.end = toLocalISOString(nextDay, 17); nxLogger.log(`Start: ${outputs.start}`); nxLogger.log(`End: ${outputs.end}`); ``` #### 'Check availability' function The thinklet contains the following custom JavaScript code: ``` function nextBusinessDay(fromDate = new Date()) { const nextDay = new Date(fromDate); do { nextDay.setDate(nextDay.getDate() + 1); } while ([0, 6].includes(nextDay.getDay())); return nextDay; } function toLocalISOString(date, offsetHours = 0, offsetMinutes = 0) { const offsetDate = new Date(date); offsetDate.setHours(offsetHours, offsetMinutes, 0, 0); // Build timedate string: 'YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS' return offsetDate.getFullYear() + '-' + String(offsetDate.getMonth() + 1).padStart(2, '0') + '-' + String(offsetDate.getDate()).padStart(2, '0') + 'T' + String(offsetDate.getHours()).padStart(2, '0') + ':' + String(offsetDate.getMinutes()).padStart(2, '0') + ':00'; } const nextDay = nextBusinessDay(); outputs.start = toLocalISOString(nextDay, 9); outputs.end = toLocalISOString(nextDay, 17); nxLogger.log(`Start: ${outputs.start}`); nxLogger.log(`End: ${outputs.end}`); ``` *** RELATED TOPICS * [Workflow: Schedule online meetings in Outlook](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/library-packs/l1-support/workflow-schedule-online-meeting-outlook) * [Usage guide: Schedule online meetings in Outlook](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/library-packs/l1-support/workflow-schedule-online-meeting-outlook/usage-guide-proactive-password-reset) * [Manage Workflows](https://docs.nexthink.com/platform/user-guide/workflows/managing-workflows)
