**Application Name:** Reference Application 2.10, Attachments 2.2.0

**Question:** What permission do I need to assign to a user to give the ability to add the attachment action in ‘Active Visit’ actions? I’ve tried assigning the permission `App: attachments.attachments.page` but it did not work. The option is available when using the Super User account.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Hi @jdultra,

There was a bug around this specific point that was solved [here](https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-module-attachments/commit/4bbfba2d3d782dfbb66d90a35c1b71548e982cb8). Can you try to upgrade to Attachments 2.3.0-SNAPSHOT?

A 2.3.0 release is imminent anyway, see [this thread](https://talk.openmrs.org/t/request-for-a-release-of-attachments-2-3-0-and-hfe-3-11-0/28744).
