[Data Apps] Project Viewers cannot access Data Apps - 'You don't have access to this resource or action' #23928

Bug description

Users with the project Viewer role get "You don't have access to this resource or action" when opening a Data App via its preview URL, even when the app is in a space they have access to. Users with the project Developer (Editor) role in the same space can open the app without issue.

The view:DataApp permission scope appears to be missing from the project Viewer role.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a Data App and add it to a shared space.
  2. Invite two users to the project: one as Developer, one as Viewer. Both should have access to the space.
  3. Share the app's preview URL with both users.
  4. Developer opens the URL successfully.
  5. Viewer receives "You don't have access to this resource or action".

Expected behavior

Project Viewers with space access should be able to open and interact with Data Apps. The view:DataApp scope should be included in the Viewer role.

Actual behavior

Project Viewers are blocked with an access denied error. Project Developers (and above) can access the app fine.

Workaround

Upgrade the affected user's project role from Viewer to Interactive Viewer or Developer.
