Autodesk Data Management API 403-Error with permissions to access API

I am trying to receive data via Autodesk Data Management API. So far I've created an Forge-App and connected it with a BIM360 Integration. Then I wanted to get a list of all hubs, but when I do so, I receive an JSON-Object which contains a warning:

warnings: [{
     "AboutLink":null,
     "Detail":""You don't have permission to access this API",
     "ErrorCode": "BIM360DM_ERROR",
     "HttpStatusCode": "403",
     ...
}]

I called the webservice via AJAX which looks like that:

this.getToken(function(token) {
        $.ajax({
            url: "https://developer.api.autodesk.com/project/v1/hubs",
            beforeSend: function(xhr) {
                xhr.setRequestHeader("Authorization", "Bearer "+token);
            }
        }).done(...);

The token is a 3-legged one. I am not sure which API I do not have permission for because I am pretty sure, that I have permission for BIM360.(I created the Integration as an administrator).

In addition to was ZHong mentioned, I would suggest you try this sample. It will ask you to provision your Forge Client ID under your BIM 360 settings, just follow the steps that the app will present.

On both 2- or 3-legged, the app accessing the data (Forge Client ID) needs authorization from the account admin. Without that, the Hubs endpoint will not return your BIM 360 hub, and inside that, the sample applies for Projects endpoint.

Does everything else work fine? For example, can you get all the hubs successfully? I just verified on my side, and I can see the response including the same warning as you mentioned, but the hubs are listed correctly, and you can get the projects/items/versions without problem. I pasted my postman response as follow.enter image description here

If you check the blog https://forge.autodesk.com/blog/tutorial-using-curl-3-legged-authentication-bim-360-docs-upload, it also has the same warning, but seems no impact to the following operation. I am not exactly sure what the warning means, l will check and update the details, but so far, it seems you can ignore it for now.
