Hi all, quick question. I’m trying to write a SuiteScript to search for transactions <https://netsuitediagnostics.com/posts/suitescript-api-search/|using >`N/search` and pull their associated files (<https://www.reddit.com/r/Netsuite/comments/136uzo2/suiteql_how_is_a_transaction_linked_to_files/|which seems possible according to this thread>).

However, I’m curious if I’d need any extra permissions to pull these files besides the ability to see transactions? Eg. Would I need `File Cabinet` access? It seems a little overkill to require access to _all_ files just to fetch files associated with transactions.

Permission : Documents and Files
• Allows usage of the Document search.
• Allows viewing and editing of the File Attachment record.
• Allows viewing and editing of the File record.

You'll need that permission if you want to access the files as they are stored in the File Cabinet and just linked to the transaction record
