Parse.com setting ACL on cloud function

I am able to set setPublicReadAccess using the code below however I would like to lock the ACL to the user only. 

Parse.Cloud.beforeSave("Programme", function(request, response) {
  Parse.Cloud.useMasterKey();

  var publicReadACL = new Parse.ACL();
  publicReadACL.setPublicReadAccess(true);

  request.object.setACL(publicReadACL);
  response.success();
});

I have also tried 

Parse.Cloud.afterSave("Programme", function(request) {
  var user = Parse.User.current();
  if(typeof request.object.getACL() === "undefined") {
    var newACL = new Parse.ACL();
    newACL.setReadAccess(user.id,true);
    newACL.setWriteAccess(user.id,true);

    request.object.setACL(newACL);
    request.object.save();
  }
});

Which does not work either.

The ACL of your ParseObject might have been already initialized, so you should userequest.object.existed() == false instead of typeof request.object.getACL() === "undefined".

Also if you don't want your object to be public you have to newACL.setPublicReadAccess(false); and newACL.setPublicWriteAccess(false);

It works for me

    Parse.Cloud.afterSave("YourObject", function(request) {
      var user = Parse.User.current();

      // check if the object was just created
      if(request.object.existed() == false){
        var newACL = new Parse.ACL();
        newACL.setPublicReadAccess(false);
        newACL.setPublicWriteAccess(false);
        newACL.setReadAccess(user.id,true);
        newACL.setWriteAccess(user.id,true);

        request.object.setACL(newACL);
        request.object.save();
      }
    });
