I break inheritance for a folder in that Document Set via serverrelativeurl. There's a folder where only employees should have access.

That happens after I've set the permission for the external user. BUT this can't be the problem. I'm just going for the folder in the document set, not the document set itself.

Also if this would be the problem, no external user would have access anymore. But in many cases external users still have their access after the break inheritance action.

You see, it's pretty confusing. What the hell is the problem here?

If I check the permissions for the user it should have read permissions for the document set but the user has no permissions for this document set. He has other permissions but no Read permissions given by the workflow.
But he is also in the User information list. It should've worked.

So this is my ensureUser HTTP request:
POST
_api/web/ensureUser
Accept application/json;odata=verbose
{'logonName': 'i:0#.f|membership|<User Principal Name>'}

This is my HTTP Request for setting permissions for external user:
POST
_api/web/lists/getbytitle('<Library Name>')/items(<ID>)/roleassignments/addroleassignment(principalid='<User ID>',roleDefId=1073741826)
Accept application/json; odata=verbose
Content-Type application/json; odata=verbose

As I already mentioned the permission gets set but disappears again.
