Hi David and Security Essentials team,

I'm observing that when running the latest Security Essentials App on core 7.0.2 as admin, all searches are working and screen content visible.
However, while using a normal user account, nothing seems to be working. Example error: 'sseanalytics' returned error code 1. (attached screenshot)

Question - is it a pre-requisite to have admin access to use the SE app ?

thanks and regards,
Shreedeep.

Users need the list_settings capability. You can create a role with that specific capability and inherit power user role and that should be enough.
