The add-on is configured so that all users have read access, while only Admin and Power User roles have write access.

[]
access = read : [ * ], write : [ admin, sc_admin, power ]
export = system

[views]
access = read : [ * ], write : [ admin ]
export = none

Which role has been assigned to the user? Is the user set as a regular User, a Power User, or an Admin?

Note: In nearly all cases, capabilities whose names begin with edit_ give users the ability to perform create, read, update, and delete operations for the feature with which they associate. For example, the edit_udp capability grants you the ability to create, read, update, and delete UDP network inputs - even if you do not have access to edit other types of inputs. Exercise caution when assigning edit_ capabilities.

Hello

There is no relevant capability for this addon that i can see
and i don't want to give the user more capabilities than he needs
