V11.14 Create / Edit USER - Policy select drawer empty with ADMIN full perms and admin_access true

Hi everyone,

I’m the admin on a Directus v11 instance (currently 11.14.0, Docker/Postgres setup, migrated from v10).

When I try to create or edit a user, the “Policies” section at the bottom lets me click “Select Policies”, but the drawer that opens is always completely empty (no policies listed, even though I have several policies created and visible in Settings > Access Control > Policies).

Interestingly, adding a new policy from the Policies page works fine, and /policies endpoint returns the list correctly.

I’ve checked:

  • admin_access is true on my admin policy

  • Assignments in directus_access are correct (direct + via role)

  • Full read permissions on directus_policies, directus_access, etc.

Console shows 404 on the complex queries with $FOLLOW filters when opening the drawer.
