User can't access item in list even though they seem to have permission

Hi

I have a SPO list which users can add to.

In a Flow I break permissions and then grant edit access to a user.

I can see in the item that they have "Can edit" access.

 

(this gives the same message)

https://https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/mysite/Lists/mylist/DispForm.aspx?ID=56&ContentTypeId=0x0100144F21075C460449AF03405563EEBFE4/DispForm.aspx?ID=56

 

However when they click on the item they get 

 

Sorry, something went wrong
No item exists at https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/mysite/Lists/mylist/DispForm.aspx?ID=56&ContentTypeId=0x0100144F21075C460449AF03405563EEBFE4.
It may have been deleted or renamed by another user.

 

In my Flow I do this ...

 

 

Thanks

P

      Found the problem - the List Settings were overriding the item permissions.

      Go to list settings- advanced settings and check Read Access. If it is set to read items that were created by the user then users will be able to see only theit own created items. You may need to set read all items option here. (From https://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/91259/users-with-contribute-permission-dont-see-list-items)
