Hello @MUNAGEL, MOHAMMAD A
As I can see, you receive the error:
Error Code: 401 Insufficient privileges to complete the operation
Code: Access Denied
To confirm the situation and suggest the troubleshooting steps in the right direction, may I confirm a few points:
- Might I confirm if you encoutering this issue during using Teams app? If yes, Could you let me know what action you were performing in Teams when the error appeared?
- Are you using a work (@companyname.com) or school account(@edu___), and is it managed by your organization's IT administrator?
- Have you been able to perform this same action successfully in the past, or is this the first time you have encountered the error?
- If available, could you share a screenshot of the full error message with any personal information removed?
- Do other users in the same Microsoft 365 tenant experience the same behavior, or is it only affecting your account?
Besides, as I am not yet able to confirm whether this issue is occurring specifically within Microsoft Teams or is related to a broader permissions configuration, I would like to share the following Microsoft Learn article for reference.
While the article focuses on Microsoft Graph rather than Microsoft Teams, it discusses an error message that closely matches the one you reported:"Authorization_RequestDenied. Insufficient privileges to complete the operation." The information provided there may be helpful when reviewing the permissions assigned to your account and the resource being accessed.

Looking forward to hearing from you!
