local.ERROR: Error in API request: No record access for link operation (Team:users)

[Russ]

Hi, I tried searching, nothing came out, when I am running a post query to add/remove users from the specified team, I get this error:
local.ERROR: Error in API request: No record access for link operation (Team:users)


There is no option to enable such thing in the roles access, when it comes to team, there is only one option to enable read, not modify, in the field level there is no such option too

Used this reference:

https://docs.espocrm.com/development/api/relationships/#link

Spent 50 minutes to wrap it differently and update the user instead of a team,
local.ERROR: Error in API request: No edit access.

Changed in database, manually /Roles to allow this API user to update any user, still the same error
local.ERROR: Error in API request: No edit access.


To summarize the issue, I need to link/unkink user with a team using official API (PHP library), I tried 2 different options:

1. Update team (endpoint: Team/$id/user) got an error: No record access for link operation (Team:users)
2. Update user (endpoint: User/$id) got an error: Error in API request: No edit access.

If you guys know how to do both, please help me implement the first one.


Thank you!

Hi Russ,

API Users can't have admin permissions. Changing user teams requires admin access.

You can an admin user + basic authorization to access API.

Or do some workaround with workflows that will perform needed actions for you.

It looks like official PHP client is not supporting base authorization?

THanks

Looks like it worked (basic authorization), thanks

Here is the code I used, for the future explorers
