PodioForbiddenError: "The app with id 123 does not have the right delete on item with id 12345"

The item to be deleted via API is in the corresponding app 123.
It is being created from a user via the reference field of another app.

PodioItem::delete($item_id);

It actually used to work until a few hours ago.
So I assume while playing with the API I must have changed something on the rights. Because now API throws

PodioForbiddenError: "The app with id 123 does not have the right delete on item with id 12345"

I knew that regular users (and below) are restricted when it comes to deleting items not being created by themselves.

What are the parameters / triggers that will change the apps right to (not) be able delete an item and how can I revert them?

Solution

  • I solved the issue by authenticating as a user (admin rights).

    Proposal to extend the error reporting with

    this item is not owned by this app
