Approval Required

If you are not able to connect Microsoft 365 Calendar without admin consent (Approval Required screen appears), you need to ask your Microsoft 365 Administrator to approve MeetingRoomApp application.

  3. Go to Enterprise Applications: In the Azure AD dashboard, find and click on "Enterprise Applications" from the left-hand menu.

  4. Search for the application: In the Enterprise Applications pane, use the search bar to find the application that needs approval.

  6. Review permissions: In the application's settings, go to "Permissions" or "Required permissions" to review the requested permissions.

  7. Click on the "Grant admin consent" button. This will grant the necessary permissions to the application, allowing it to access your Microsoft account or other resources.
