Create and Delete Thing Permission Issue

Hello Everyone,

I have a service, that uses the createThing and deleteThing Services.
I gave a freshly created user the rights to execute the service and also the createThing and deleteThing services. But I still get the error
"...Not authorized for Delete - See Script Error Log for more details."

I only found some very old posts regarding this issue, which didn't solve it for me. 

Any ideas what to do here?

 

Thank you very much in advance!

 

Best Regards,

Dominik

Please try to add a design-time permission to create things to System user on the Things collection level.

Hello Dominik,

 

So what does ScriptLog and ApplicationLog say?

 

You also need to set design-time permissions on those things that you are deleting, not just runtime. You can do it either on the thing template level, or on a whole Things collection.

    Hello Constantine, 

    thank you for your reply!

    Unfortunately the Logs don't give usefull hints

    Application Log:
    Execution error in service script [createNodeInFolder] :: Not authorized for Create

    Script Log:

    Error in: projectOverviewRepo.createNodeInFolder javascript service

     

    Here is a snipped from the code of the service:

    var params = {
    name: name /* STRING */,
    description: undefined /* STRING */,
    thingTemplateName: "projectRepositoryTemplate" /* THINGTEMPLATENAME */,
    tags: undefined /* TAGS */
    };

    // no return
    Resources["EntityServices"].CreateThing(params);
    Things[name].EnableThing();
    Things[name].RestartThing();

     

     

    These are the permission configurations for "EntityServices" (Resrouces)

     

     

    These are the permissions from the ThingTemplate that I want to create a Thing from

    Run Time (same config for Run Time and Run Time Instance)

    Design Time (same for Run Time and Run Time Instance)
