It works for me now.

Look in Contact Form DB>Options

I found this in the documentation:

WARNING: This security setting is overridden by the plugin-wide setting that limits what roles can see data from short codes. In the WP Admin area, go to Contact -> Database Options -> Can See Submission when using shortcodes. If that setting is set to “Author” for example, then no user will less than Author role can see output from any short code even if you have role=”Anyone” in a short code. You may find it most useful to set the plugin-wide setting to “Anyone” then use “role” on your short codes. The plugin-wide setting is there to allow an administrator to prevent Contributers, Authors and Editors from writing short codes in posts that might reveal data that they are not permitted to see.

I am having the same issue.

role="anyone" is part of the short code and we still get the “permissions” message.

Any update on this issue?
