But when try to create a event using ruby_outlook getting below error

Your issue is that the token that you fetched was using the Microsoft graph API but now you are trying to create an even through the Outlook API. You cannot use a token issued for Graph ("aud": "graph.microsoft.com") against the Outlook endpoint. You need a token with "aud": "outlook.office.com".Better is use the graph API itself using the graph gem to create an event since you already have the token fetched from it.

To do that first create the MicrosoftGraph object 

def create_service_auth
  access_token = get_access_token
  callback =  Proc.new do |r|
    r.headers['Authorization'] = "Bearer #{access_token}"
    r.headers['Content-Type']  = 'application/json'
    r.headers['X-AnchorMailbox'] = "#{ email_of_calendar_for_which_to_create_the_event }"
  end
  @graph = ::MicrosoftGraph.new(base_url: 'https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0',
                            cached_metadata_file: File.join(MicrosoftGraph::CACHED_METADATA_DIRECTORY, 'metadata_v1.0.xml'),
                              &callback)
end

Then create the event - 

def create_event
  event = {
    subject: summary,
    body: {
      content_type: "HTML",
      content: description
    },
    start: {
      date_time: start_time,
      time_zone: timezone
    },
    end: {
      date_time: end_time,
      time_zone: timezone
    },
    response_requested: true,
    organizer: {emailAddress: { name: "#{organizer.full_name}", address: email_of_calendar_for_which_to_create_the_event }},
    attendees: [
      {
        email_address: {
          address: attendee_email,
          name: "#{attendee.full_name}"
        },
        type: "required"
      }
    ]
  }

  result = @graph.me.events.create(event)
end
