access
Full access to user calendars - allowing MazeMap to create, read, update and delete events in user calendars. This is necessary to book a room with a user that is logged in.
Reading user’s basic profile (name, picture and username): This is used to provide a more personalized user experience. This information is only accessed for a signed-in user.

Here is a full list over all the Office365 Microsoft 365 API Calls*:
Getting availability (overview in map for specific point in time) + schedule for a single room for some time in the future (we use the timestamps, not the other information in the schedule items)
...
The login flow is client side only. It does not go through MazeMap servers. The user gets prompted for a login flow from Office365 Microsoft 365 which returns an access token. This access token is stored locally in the browser (for 60 minutes) and used in calls to MazeMap when booking a room. The access token is forwarded directly to the Office365 Microsoft 365 APIs for booking a room (impersonation).

Microsoft makes changes
We want to optimise the flow (faster alternative API calls doing the same action)
New requirements/ new features
Auto unbooking with occupancy sensors
The optional auto unbooking feature allows resources to automatically be un-booked if occupancy sensors or wifi check-in policies show that the resource is unused. This frees up the resources for other users. For example, automatically cancelling a meeting room booking if a sensor in the room shows no one is present, allows another user to book the room.
To be able to do cancellation without a signed-in user, write permission to all calendars is required.
