what all data does app specific password give access to?
When I give an application access via app specific password, what all information icloud is that application able to access?
Am I able to view what information it is accessing?
Thank you

Hello bilalfrombrooklyn,
Thank you for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
We were able to find a few good examples of what infomration can be requested by apps:
App-specific passwords allow you to securely use your Apple ID to sign in to apps made by developers other than Apple.
Some apps made by developers other than Apple ask you to sign in with your Apple ID, so that the app can access information like mail, contacts, and calendars that you store in iCloud. To help make sure that your Apple ID password can't be stored or collected by the app, you can choose to create an Apple ID password to use only with that app.
You use this app-specific password when the app asks you to sign in with your Apple ID.
Additional details can be found here, in the article you viewed prior to posting: Sign in to apps with your Apple ID using app-specific passwords
Hopefully this helps answer your question.
Cheers!
