Editing macros: error message
Problem
For some users, the edit dialog of a document or list macro shows an error message after trying to log in. The problem occurs for the server and the cloud version.
Solution
The logged-in users should have at least read access to the root SharePoint site collection to perform search queries on the SharePoint List and Document macro configuration.
- Open the root site collection of your tenant 
- Edit the site permissions (in the site settings) 
- Add read permissions to the affected user
