Storage Permission Issue: Team-based `read()` permissions return 404 instead of allowing access

Problem: Files uploaded with Permission.read(Role.team(teamId)) return 404 Not Found when accessed by confirmed team members, even though the user is verified to be a member of that team. If i set permission to Any:Read it works.

Environment:

• Appwrite Version: 1.8.0 Cloud
• Platform: Web (Angular frontend)
• Storage: Appwrite Cloud

permissions: [
            Permission.read(Role.team(teamId)),
            Permission.update(Role.team(teamId, TeamRole.MANAGER)),
            Permission.delete(Role.team(teamId, TeamRole.MANAGER)),
            Permission.write(Role.user(this.authService.currentUser()!.$id))
          ],

Expected Result: File should be accessible since user is confirmed team member (with Database same permissions works with same user/team).

Actual Result: 404 Not Found error (same as if file doesn't exist)

Workaround: Adding Permission.read(Role.any()) makes files accessible, confirming it's a team permission issue, not file existence.

Question: Is this a known issue with team-based read permissions? Are there any specific requirements for team permissions that might be missing?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 🙏

How are you accessing the file? Via it's url?

yes:

 
this.appwrite.storage.getFileDownload({
      bucketId: bucketId,
      fileId: storageFileId
    });
