Configuring an Office 365 Service User with access to all Room Resource Mailboxes (PowerShell)
In a scenario where you are managing a large number of resource mailboxes, you may not want to assign delegation privileges on a mailbox by mailbox basis.
For Office 365 and Exchange environments, you can easily create a service user who has access to all Room Resource mailboxes on your tenant in just 2 lines of PowerShell.
The first line connects to Exchange Online as your service user.
The second line creates a named Management scope for your service user to manage Room mailboxes. Note: Equipment mailboxes and workspace mailboxes will not be managed by this rule.
