Hi Eva, When you create bot password, have you checked the following items under the “Applicable grants” column?
l Edit existing pages<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ListGrants#editpage> l Edit protected pages<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:ListGrants#editprotected> (If you would like also edit pages with protection, and you have the permission to do so) Thanks, Xinyan From: Wikidata-tech <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Seidlmayer, Eva Sent: Tuesday, September 8, 2020 7:24 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [Wikidata-tech] problem with bot test edits Hey, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but I really do not know where to ask instead. When I try to make some test edits in the main instance with my recently accepted bot, I receive the message: "permissiondenied: You do not have the permissions needed to carry out this action." I am logged in with my User@bot-username and my bot-password and use Wikibase-CLI. What do I do wrong? Thank you very much! Cheers, Eva
