I changed Sharing Settings for Calendar to "Hide Details and Add Events", but I don't know how to put it in metadata *.xml files, is it even possible?

1Couldn't find this anywhere to be documented but looks like there's no corresponding Metadata type for Calendar's sharing settings. Only reasoning to validate this is that Sharing settings are only available on CustomObject on the SharingModel field type which does not list the options those are available for Calendar.– Jayant DasCommented Sep 7, 2018 at 15:59

@JayantDas Yeah, I checked Task, Activity, and Event CustomObject, expecting to maybe find something special, but they are all just ControlledByParent. I think it's a documentation issue more than anything.– sfdcfox ♦Commented Sep 7, 2018 at 16:40

@sfdcfox Agreed. It looks like this is not supported and not documented either. I searched every possible location I could but of no use. With this instance I have come across at least 3 of features which do not work as expected or are not clearly documented. I am still awaiting for one of my cases to be responded back around similar documentation issue. Off topic, do you know how to raise such issues to Salesforce to fix issues identified with documentation? Because not every time one can actually open a case.– Jayant DasCommented Sep 7, 2018 at 16:45

1@JayantDas What I generally do is leave feedback on the page, then send a tweet to salesforcedocs. They usually respond pretty quickly, and the documentation team loves getting messages.– sfdcfox ♦Commented Sep 7, 2018 at 16:47

@sfdcfox - Just mentioning fyi .. thanks for the recommendation. Had tweeted Salesforce Docs and got their response. Have been using that twitter handle to highlight any documentation issues and they have been acknowledging those as well. Very good way of reaching out to the team.– Jayant DasCommented Oct 31, 2018 at 20:50

So, based on @sfdcfox's recommendation, I tweeted to @salesforcedocs and finally got the response.
Calendar's are not supported in Metadata, and thus you won't have any opportunity to add it in any metadata xml file.
As per the response, the one mentioned as "Public and Resource Calendars" on Unsupported Metadata Types signifies "Calendar".
Here's the link to the response from Salesforce Docs team (snapshot below).

+1 Or "Calendars and Public Resources". Etc. I never would have guessed this phrase meant "public calendars."– sfdcfox ♦Commented Oct 31, 2018 at 20:54
