    The Microsoft 365 Basic subscription does not include Microsoft Access. Access is available in specific plans such as Microsoft 365 Apps for Business, which includes desktop versions of apps like Access and Publisher for PC only. Therefore, if you have a Microsoft 365 Basic subscription, you will not have access to Microsoft Access.

    See the following link:

    In the link scroll down to the comparative table of MS 365 versions.

    PS: Also note that Access only operates on a Windows desktop. It cannot be installed on a Mac unless a Windows emulator such as Parallels and Windows itself are installed.
