Hello,
we have an issue with one of the plugin called Content Tools (https://community.appian.com/b/appmarket/posts/content-tools).
We use a function "getdownloadersfromgroup" in an expression rule to find who downloaded the file. We did not have a problem with this function until now. Whoever wants to execute this expression (besides designers) gets this error:
Error Evaluating UI Expression Expression evaluation error [evaluation ID = 99b65:7ceed] in rule 'hrzn_checkdownloadvalidation' (called by rules 'hrzn_s_coverletterac' > 'hrzn_f_authoritycorrespondencev2') at function a!forEach [line 4]: Error in a!forEach() expression during iteration 1: Expression evaluation error at function 'getdownloadersfromgroup' [line 6]: The user [...] does not have sufficient privileges to perform the requested action.
Even if we set security of this expression "hrzn_checkdownloadvalidation" to All users -> Administrator, they still get the error.
Here is a report from authz-audit.csv file:
2022-07-07 08:49:42.515,user,k-service-collaboration-statistics,com.appiancorp.suiteapi.collaboration.StatisticsService.getUsersByDownloadedDocumentPaging,DENIED,,"userRoles=[tempo-user, app-user] rolesAllowingAction=[designer]"
We are wondering how to change a security of this plugin, so not only designers but also other users could use this function.
Could someone please help?
Thanks and Kind Regards
Ondrej

As far as I know there's no such thing as "changing the security" of a plug-in function (or really any other function). I would expect that the issue you're running into is related to either the security setting of the group, and/or the security setting of the document in question.
Can you confirm that the basic user you're trying to execute this function under has at least readership access to the document, and that the group's Visibility and Privacy settings are set appropriately?
