No permissions to copy survey? was created by kkretsch
I'm using Version 2.50+ Build 160731.
As an admin I created a working survey. I created a normal user who can create own fresh surveys. That user should be enabled to copy my working survey as a template for creating his own ones. The user can see the copy template survey in the source selection box but when clicking the "Copy survey" button it fails with a permission error.
I gave my survey additional user permission for that normal user like a read permission an nearly everything but stilll the same.
What special permission is needed to be able to copy a survey from someone else as a copy cat? And does it matter if that source survey is inactive?

Copy survey
Error
We are sorry but you don't have permissions to do this.

If you give the user global permissions to create and export surveys, they should be able to copy the surveys they have access to.
