Rest API permissions missing for the administrator user in Free version

Question

Hi,

I am an administrator user and I am trying to access information about project and issues through REST API. However, when I ask about my permissions I am getting information that I do not have permissions to browse projects.

https://findwise-fix.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/mypermissions?permissions=BROWSE_PROJECTS,EDIT_ISSUES

Response:

{
    "permissions": {
        "BROWSE_PROJECTS": {
            "id": "10",
            "key": "BROWSE_PROJECTS",
            "name": "Browse Projects",
            "type": "PROJECT",
            "description": "Ability to browse projects and the issues within them.",
            "havePermission": false
        },
        "EDIT_ISSUES": {
            "id": "12",
            "key": "EDIT_ISSUES",
            "name": "Edit Issues",
            "type": "PROJECT",
            "description": "Ability to edit issues.",
            "havePermission": false
        }
    }
}

I can open an issue, but I cannot view it then.

Do I need to set some additional permissions to be able to use Rest API, or maybe it is not available in the free plan?

Problem resolved. It was a Postman issue - The permissions call did not properly inherit the authorisation data. My fault.
