I have published a deployment that runs with the developer account. In the deployment settings I have a role called \"Supervisors\". I have assigned a google group to that role,
It so happens that the AppMaker team corrected a buggy behavior that allowed the reading of email addresses from groups without having the permission properly set up in the group settings. To make the app work again I had to make sure the group permission had the proper access for viewing email addresses; Group Settings -> Permissions -> Access permissions -> View Email Addresses.
Once I changed the permission to All members of the group, I proceeded to republish the app and then it worked again.
Update 12/31/2019
On top of the already mentioned above, you also need to make sure that the group is visible to all members in the organization:
Group Settings -> Permissions -> Basic permissions -> Group Visibility.
