Description of problem:

Step 1: I load the list of my applications

Step 2: I click ‘edit’ so that I can change the callback URL

Step 3: I get an error saying I do not have permission

I am logged in to the correct account (i.e. the same account as the application owner)

Expected behaviour - Opens a new page were I am able to edit features of the application including the callback URL

@ultrazool

i didn’t check, but you must have created your applications before a requirement to apply for an application owner role was implemented to combat some bad behavior. so you just need to apply for that role. there’s a button in the top-right quadrant of your screenshot that will take you to the application.
