Hi

I have a scenario in which user can select a user from a particular user group. I have used the function isusermemberofgroup() in the validations of pickerFieldUsers() which works as per desire when I am logged in as Admin.
My code is:
a!pickerFieldUsers(
label: "Select User : ",
labelPosition: "ADJACENT",
maxSelections:1,
value:ri!user,
saveInto:ri!user,
validations:if(isnull(ri!user),{},{if(isusermemberofgroup(ri!user,cons!USER_GROUP)," ","Please select the correct user")})
)
But when I log in as a basic user I get an error as:

Error evaluating function 'isusermemberofgroup' : PrivilegeException[null=>null]: Insufficient permission

Can anyone please suggest as to how to handle this scenario.

Thanks in advance!!

In addition, if you run into this again and can't modify group security - for those cases I've created a function to check based on group name which utilizes the getgroupsformemberuser() function, to avoid security restrictions.

contains(
apply(
fn!tostring,
apply(
fn!getgroupnames,
getgroupsformemberuser(
ri!userIn
)
)
),
ri!groupName
)

We are using function "getgroupsformemberuser" like this:apply(fn!getgroupsformemberuser,<lastUpdatedUserId>).

This works fine in all environment except the one where we get error as:- com.appiancorp.suiteapi.common.exceptions.AppianException: Incorrect privileges to get groups for user. [User Context: We get error when <lastUpdatedUserId> is not part of logged in user's group.

We checked that group security setting are same as in other environments - group security as public and group privacy policy as low.
