When attempting to retrieve the list of contacts using REST WS and accessing with a user which has an access type without license, only the same userid is displayed and no other listings.
Release : 17.3
Component : Svc Desk Web Services
This is a expected behavior as access type without a license cannot display the entire list as they are not allowed due to their license restrictions.
Check the box for the "Licensed?" field in the access type of the contact then recreate the REST session and the entire list of contacts should be displayed.
