Morning folks
I a have setup an API token via the application registry and when trying to use it via postman, with an admin enabled service account (testing only) I get access to stats but not the table level. I know it is going to be something really obvious but I am going round in circles trying to resolve.
Any thoughts?

Hi Jack
1. You need a service account to access the table level
2.Check any acl on table level and acl should be admin overrides checkbox should be "true"

so what's your actual issue?
You are able to get access token but unable to get the data using Table API?
If yes then API user should also pass the Table level READ ACL to access the data.
Did you check that?
If my response helped please mark it correct and close the thread so that it benefits future readers.

Hi @Jack62 ,
The user profile that you utilize in connection with your Oauth token, have you ensured to provide correct access?
If my answer has helped with your question, please mark my answer as the accepted solution and give a thumbs up.

Thanks for the answers everyone, we have looked at access and from above, the only one not already resolved was web services only ticked. Regarding access I have gone all, the way up and given the user admin access and still getting access denied at table level. our user account is below, in case there is anything obvious
Any further thoughts on this? this is a scoped application however I am currently just trying to get table access to the incident table to troubleshoot and I get the same access issues.
