Nintex Workflow o365 – Error assigning a task to SharePoint Group

I have received this error on assigning a task to a SharePoint group:

Activity in progress
Retrying last request. Next attempt scheduled after 10/14/2016 11:25 AM. Details of last request: HTTP Unauthorized to https://blablabla.sharepoint.com/sites/Test/_api/sp.utilities.utility.SendEmail Correlation Id: 1a1a1a1a- abcd-efgh-ijkl-3c3c3c3c3c3c Instance Id: 2b2b2b2b-abcd-efgh-ijkl-4d4d4d4d4d4d
Access denied. You do not have permission to perform this action or access this resource.


Then I discovered that in order to make it working I need to add my account to the group or to change its settings “Who can view the membership of the group?” to “Everyone”.

Another solution I believe is to grant full control permission to the workflow as shown here: https://community.nintex.com/community/build-your-own/nintex-for-office-365/blog/2015/05/14/o365-call-http-web-service-failed-unauthorized-access-denied
