How can I get a user’s calendar events from Microsoft Graph without hitting limits or missing data?

Hi Gilkey Nabil

Thank you for reaching out to the Microsoft Q&A Forum.

Based on your description, I understand that you are trying to retrieve a user’s calendar events through Microsoft Graph, and you are seeing issues when the calendar contains a large number of events or recurring meetings.

In this case, the recommended endpoint to use is calendarView, since it allows you to query events within a specific date range.

I tested this in my environment and was able to retrieve the events successfully using the request below (you can also refer to the screenshot I provided):
GET https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/{userID}/calendarView   ?startDateTime=2026-01-01T00:00:00Z   &endDateTime=2026-02-25T23:59:59Z   &$top=1000

Please note that each request can return a maximum of 1000 events, so if the calendar contains more than that, you will need to retrieve the remaining results through pagination.

I hope this helps.
