Any user that has Viewer permission for the web API should be able to make a request to the API.See this documentation for more info: https://docs.appian.com/suite/help/19.1/Web_APIs.html#security
Well that user need access as viewer to other objects used on the web api like the data store if querying to the DB
Yep, good point. Anything you are doing on the back-end you would have to confirm the calling user has access to like data store for querying the database or a process model if you are starting a process off.
