While configuring the AAD User log, I am getting this error. Is there anyone who can help me regrading this?

A 403 error is typically a permissions issue with the Azure AD app registration.  Check the permissions by going to https://portal.azure.com  Go to Azure Active Directory > App registrations > find your app registration the add-on is using > API permissions.  To get user data, you will need to have Microsoft Graph User.Read.All.

For details on the various permissions needed for specific inputs, refer to this link -> http://bit.ly/Splunk_Azure_Permissions
