In order to call this API endpoint, user needs to have [EditMessages] permission

It's throwing following error when trying to edit inbound message received. I'm trying to change read status. It's working fine for outbound message

"errorCode" : "CMN-408",  "message" : "In order to call this API endpoint, user needs to have [EditMessages] permission.",

Is the inbound message sent to "you" (the authorized user)? If not, you may not have the permission to edit it.

Please also login  https://service.ringcentral.com/ to confirm user permissions are configured properly.
