Hi, thank you for pointing it out, apparently you need to have one of the roles applied in Liberty (which is what we used), but my demo user had both applied. If then chooses the lower level access, hence no access. Once I gave the user only heat_stack_owner i could deploy stacks within the normal projects as normal users.

Thank you again.

AFAIR starting from Kilo (or may be even later maintenance releases of Juno) one does not actually need the heat_stack_owner role altogether, all user roles should be passed via trust by default (you have to make sure Heat is configured to use Keystone V3 for that).
