I want to push a new version of a policyfile to the Chef server.

With an admin user I can do it. But, what are the permissions a normal user (or client) need to do so?

This is what I get when I run `run chef push rehearsal <policy_name>` with a normal user:

````auto
Error: Failed to upload policy to policy group rehearsal
Reason: (Net::HTTPServerException) HTTP 403 Forbidden: missing update permission```

Thank you very much for your help!

I could solve this thanks to the support I received from [https://chefcommunity.slack.com/messages/C2VACTK2A/](https://chefcommunity.slack.com/messages/C2VACTK2A/)

Basically, I needed to give the user (or client) permission to write on `policies`, `policy_groups`, `cookbook_artifacts` containers.
