The models access is, as the heading suggests, i think, only for workspace related things.

You need to individually set the models to "public" so the users can see them.

Alternatively, use the environment variable for making all models available to all users

BYPASS_MODEL_ACCESS_CONTROL
Type: bool
Default: False
Description: Bypasses model access control.

set this to true
