    Hi Satyam Rinayat,

    Thanks for reaching out!

    As per the documentation, me/followedSites supports only the delegated permissions.

    I tried from my end by consenting to "Sites.Read.All" in Graph Explorer. It works fine.

    User's image

    Forbidden error occurs when access is denied to the requested resource. The user might not have enough permission or might not have a required license.

    Could you please verify by consenting to "Sites.Read.All" and execute the endpoint in Graph Explorer?

    Hope this helps.
