    Authorisation error when deleting and unpublishing a document

    I am using Umbraco 7.1.4

    I get the following error when trying to delete a document

    Authorization error: Unauthorized access to URL: /umbraco/backoffice/UmbracoApi/Content/DeleteById

    and this error when unpublishing

    Authorization error: Unauthorized access to URL: /umbraco/backoffice/UmbracoApi/Content/PostUnPublish

    We can create and save documents fine.

    This is only occuring on the live server. It works properly on local and staging servers, I can't see any differences in the settings between the setups. I have looked at the permissions and read only status on the files etc. I can access the API's to check they are working.

    What would cause this error to occur?

    I got exactly the same error message today on version 7.6.1. I managed to resolve it by right click on the document and go into 'Permission'. On the Permission window, only one user has the permission to delete. It's really odd as that user is not even the user who created the document.

    I then give myself the delete permission on that document and I managed to delete it.
