API token not authorized when user restricted out of main branch

[ready4sea]

Can we access your project?

• I give permission for members of the FlutterFlow team to access and test my project for the sole purpose of investigating this issue.

Current Behavior

When adding a collaborator to a project and restricting him to a specific branch (not allowing him to edit or merge into "main"), the user cannot used FlutterFlow CLI or the VSCode extension to work with the specific branch.

Expected Behavior

The collborator should be able to work on his branch, while being denied access to main.

Steps to Reproduce

• Create an entirely blank project
• Created a branch "test-branch"
• Invited a teammate as collaborator on the project
• Confine him to the created "test-branch", restricting him from either editing or pushing to the "main" branch
• Using FlutterFlow CLI or the CS Code extension, the API token returns a 403 "User not authorized" error when attempting to pull "test-branch". For example using flutterflow export-code --project test-abcdef --branch-name test-branch --project-environment Production --include-assets --token <HIS_API_TOKEN>
• Allow the collaborator back onto "main" branch
• Using the same command to pull "test-branch" now works fine.

Reproducible from Blank

• The steps to reproduce above start from a blank project.
