Answer 2

Hey there Marwan Geagea

This 403 error occurs because delegated permissions are used to access another user's calendar, but you need to know that delegated permissions can only be used to access the logged-in user's own calendar. If you need to access another user's calendar, please add the Calendars.Read application permission, and then use the client credentials flow to get an access token, and then you can use this token to get the other user's calendars.

For more information about the client credentials flow, check out the link:
