Global service	US Government L4	US Government L5 (DOD)	China operated by 21Vianet
✅	✅	✅	✅

Permissions

Depending on the type of calendar that the event is created in and the permission type (delegated or application) requested, one of the following permissions is required to call this API. To learn more, including how to choose permissions, see Permissions.

Calendar	Delegated (work or school account)	Delegated (personal Microsoft account)	Application
user calendar	Calendars.ReadWrite	Calendars.ReadWrite	Calendars.ReadWrite
group calendar	Group.ReadWrite.All	Not supported.	Not supported.

Important

Microsoft Graph SDKs use the v1.0 version of the API by default, and do not support all the types, properties, and APIs available in the beta version. For details about accessing the beta API with the SDK, see Use the Microsoft Graph SDKs with the beta API.

For details about how to add the SDK to your project and create an authProvider instance, see the SDK documentation.
