I’m sure I’m doing something daft, but I can’t figure it out…

I’m making the same API call on Commons of meta=userinfo&uiprop=rights|groups via

The groups returned by both is the same, but the rights are not.

Specifically, I’m trying to set a file’s caption with 'action=wbsetlabel&language=en&id=M123&value=Blah etc. but am getting:

You do not have the permissions needed to carry out this action.
The action you have requested is limited to users in the group: *.

Even though * is definitely listed in my groups (in API calls from either place).

Can someone tell me what I’m doing wrong?
