Realm Global file stop working with Realm 3.7.2

Hi there, I was having a global realm file that was shared among users. Users where able to shared content. However, since I updated to 3.7.2, I am not able to share content between users.

This is how user login SyncUser.loginAsync(SyncCredentials.usernamePassword(eMail, password, true), AUTH_URL, new SyncUser.Callback() {… where AUTH_URL = "http://" + BuildConfig.OBJECT_SERVER_IP + ":9080/auth";

The global file is: COMMON_REALM_URL = "realm://" + BuildConfig.OBJECT_SERVER_IP + ":9080/" + REALM_NAME;

and the configuration is:

SyncConfiguration commonRealmConfiguration = new SyncConfiguration.Builder(user, COMMON_REALM_URL).build();
Realm.setDefaultConfiguration(commonRealmConfiguration);

I adapted my code according to the documentation for Realm 3.7.2 to grant permission. When the global file is created, the admin user grant permissions to all users as follows:

private static void setPermissionsDefaultRealm(SyncUser user){
        if (user.isAdmin()){
            PermissionManager pm = user.getPermissionManager();

            UserCondition condition = UserCondition.noExistingPermissions();
            AccessLevel accessLevel = AccessLevel.WRITE;
            PermissionRequest request = new PermissionRequest(condition, COMMON_REALM_URL, accessLevel);

            pm.applyPermissions(request, new PermissionManager.ApplyPermissionsCallback() {
                @Override
                public void onSuccess() {

                }

                @Override
                public void onError(ObjectServerError error) {
                
                }
            });
        }
    }

There is not trace or error showing that something is going wrong. The problem is that when I query the file, only returns results for the logged user. I am doing something wrong?

In the meantime, I found a relevant integration test which could give some ideas: https://github.com/realm/realm-java/blob/0c9c0282d3cfd4b6f8e48cc418fcc9a492446720/realm/realm-library/src/syncIntegrationTest/java/io/realm/PermissionManagerTests.java#L758-L807
