Hi everyone,

I am encountering an issue when attempting to check in files into the public folder. I receive the following error message:

Insufficient privileges. You do not have the permission "Check In". Please contact the system administrator to get the required permission.

If the problem persists, please contact your system administrator.

Code: repository.exception.insufficientpermission

Could someone assist with the exact role or permission required in the Control Room to grant "Check In" access for public folders?

Thanks!

Have you checked the folder name under Public Bots/Users/{your username}? Please make sure the folder name exactly matches your username, as it is case-sensitive. Rename the folder if needed, then try checking in again. It should work perfectly after that.
