adminaccess to read all metadata even with accessRole:freeBusyReader about go-samples HOT 2 CLOSED

That scope does not do what you're trying to accomplish. It only grants the application full access to the calendar of the authorizing user. It does not, however, grant any additional access to other user's calendars. There isn't any scope that does that. Instead, you need to acquire access tokens to act on behalf of those other users.

I'm curious what information did you read that implied you'd be able to read other user's private events in detail? Just want to make sure docs aren't misleading here.

you are right, https://developers.google.com/calendar/quickstart/go doesnt mention anything about access to other users.

Problem Solved:
needed to signout and sign back into to my work's gmail. power cycling the laptop didnt work. deleting the token.json didnt work.

setup FYI.

1. used this code https://developers.google.com/calendar/quickstart/go using oauth2 web token method
2. enabled calendar api.
3. worked with my corp's gsuite team, to setup an admin user profile for me to use delegated to my GCP project.
4. used oauth2.0 client id json file (from gcp> api & services > credentials > oauth2.0 client id > downloaded file,
5. log out and log back into Google Services.
   and now i have read access other's private calendar meta data(no content) within my corp domain.
