Someone has just submitted this same issue on the mailing list. Here's some additional details...

{noformat}
When using an authentication which will use the API tokens, download requests are processed using a one-time password token (since they become part of the URL). These are only honored for certain endpoints which do not appear correct. 

As a work-around, you could use clients certificates, download via a curl command, or use View as it is not subject to the same endpoint check (when not clustered).

>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Core UI
>    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
>            Reporter: Scott Wagner
>            Assignee: Matt Gilman
>             Fix For: 1.1.0

> I am running on a standalone instance of Apache NiFi.  It is configured to use a local LDAP server for authentication, and I am logging in as a user with full permissions.
> When browsing the templates, and I click on the "Download" link, a new tab is opened in the browser but the error message of {{Unable to perform the desired action due to insufficient permissions. Contact the system administrator.}}
> Checking the link that is submitted via developer tools, I noticed that the Authorization header is not being submitted.  If I use curl to get the URL that the browser is trying to get but submit an Authorization header for my valid session, I am able to download the template XML.
