3587754 - No edit access error while attaching a document to a Background OData entity.

• An issue arises when attempting to attach a document to a Background OData entity.
• The error message received is: "Employee [API Username] has no Edit access to record 1".

Image/data in this KBA is from SAP internal systems, sample data, or demo systems. Any resemblance to real data is purely coincidental.

• OData API Framework

The error occurred because the API user had both admin and user permissions, and the admin permission was only used to query the data. If the API user have both the admin and user permissions, the admin permission applies. 

1. Identify the user permissions for API user.
2. Remove the admin permission (Administrator Permissions >> Manage User >> Export Extended User Information) to resolve the error.
