I'm using the O365 calendar connector to get booking details on resource calendars.

Office365Outlook.GetEventsCalendarViewV3

I had to make myself a delegate on the calendars for it to work.

When other users use the app they are asked to sign in with their own O365 account to use the outlook connector.

But as they arent a delegate, GetEventsCalendarViewV3 doesnt work and gives an error.

Is there a way to force the outlook connector to use the account I set when editing the app, and not ask the user to sign in?
Or maybe another way to accomplish this?

I think you misunderstood my question.

How can I achieve this without using flow, but just the
Office365Outlook.GetEventsCalendarViewV3
action inside powertapps.

You could try:

1.Change the trigger of this Flow to PowerAPPs (V2)

2. On the details page of the flow, click the "Edit" button next to "Run only users":

3. On the "Manage run-only permissions" panel, make sure to select "Use this connection (...)"(use your credentials) from the "Connection Used" dropdown list.

The only way I could think to do this is with Powerautomate. The equavalent Office365Outlook.GetEventsCalendarView action can be performed by a differnt use than has launched the Powerapp.
