You will need to say what nodes you are using to help narrow down your question. What module did you install to get the node?

Have you tried the 2 examples in the [readme](https://flows.nodered.org/node/node-red-contrib-accesscontrol)?

Failing that, you could look at [the src for that node](https://github.com/EdoGimo/node-red-contrib-accesscontrol/blob/main/accesscontrol/grant.js#L46) to determine what `msg.xxxx` properties are accessed / used

Also, the node itself has built in help that states...

> **Note:** All fields can also be specified using the msg attributes: e.g., to get the content of "msg.role" write only "role" after changing the type. Regarding CRUD attributes, be sure to provide an array, otherwise the node may fail or work incorrectly.
