Shared Google Sheet (Editor Access for Collaborator), with Custom UI TemplateHtml, serves html, but does not append row. Works for Sheet Owner

I have a working (working for me, the owner of the sheet/ app script) apps script that allows a user to enter any customer interaction. The user is a collaborator on the Sheet, with Editor access.

When the collaborator runs the custom menu item, a html is served (Template), but when the collaborator hits Submit, the data does not get appended to the specified tab on the spreadsheet. This works fine if I run it, though.

Reading a bit of the documentation seems to suggest an Authmode issue? Any pointers gratefully appreciated. Thanks.

Here is my CODE.GS


function onOpen() {
  SpreadsheetApp.getUi() // Or DocumentApp or SlidesApp or FormApp.
      .createMenu('Customer Engagement')
      .addItem('Record Interaction', 'showDialog')
      .addToUi();
}

function showDialog() {
  var html = HtmlService.createTemplateFromFile('RecordInteraction.html');
  html.data = readData();
  SpreadsheetApp.getUi().showModalDialog(html.evaluate().setWidth(400).setHeight(600), 'Please Enter Details');
}

function readData() {
  var url = "https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/13Ms0Cny3f-XaXS26s5AnrDT4H9c8p8OKRfwxPIQ9_CU/edit#gid=16760772"; 
  var ss = SpreadsheetApp.openByUrl(url);
  var ws = ss.getSheetByName("Pipeline");
  var rng = ws.getRange('D2:D')
  var rangeArray = rng.getValues();
  var filArray = rangeArray.filter(function (el) {return el[0] != ""}).flat();  // Modified
  console.info("hello read the data")
  return filArray;
}

function activateSheetById(sheetId) {
 
  //Access all the sheets in the Google Sheets spreadsheet
  var sheets = SpreadsheetApp.getActive().getSheets();

  //Filter out sheets whose Ids do not match
  var sheetsForId = sheets.filter(function(sheet) {
    return sheet.getSheetId() === sheetId;
  });

  //If a sheet with the Id was found, activate it
  if(sheetsForId.length > 0)
    sheetsForId[0].activate();
}

function appendRowFromFormSubmit(form) {
  var row = [form.name, form.doi, form.mode, form.feedback, form.temperature];
  console.info("Appending Row");
  activateSheetById(2059810756);
  SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet().appendRow(row);
}

function RemoveMenu() {
     var ss = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet();
     ss.removeMenu('Customer Contact');
}

Here is my HTML+JS
