Could someone please point me to where/how to grant my python application, installed with a .desktop file into gnome, permission to talk to certain devices on USB?

When I run the application from the command line with sudo, usb communication works, but when I run from the gnome application menu, no luck.

What is the best practice for granting these types of permissions when an application is installed and launched with a .desktop file?

Thanks
