What access rights are needed for a user to be able to use the ConfigAPI properly?

I’ve created a method to retrieve the HWDriver settings for a specific camera item in the Smart Client, since i *need* to know, if the CameraItem, that my plugin is dealing with is a device from a specific vendor.

The ‘hardware/productID’ property helps in this respect.

All works fine, if a user with ‘full’ rights is logged in. But a ‘basic’ user with almost no rights does not get hold of this information.

What access right does the user need to be able to access this piece of information?

Thanks in advance.

Access to the Hardware object was changed in 2019 R3 to allow a user with access to a camera, also has access to the cameras hardware.

The check for correct camera could use the HardwareDriverPath - where the GUID is unique for a given driver.

What version of XProtect are you testing this with?
