Importing GitHub Organization stuck in continuous loop

[bravo]

I am trying to setup a new SonarCloud account with GitHub. When I start importing an existing GitHub organization, it is stuck in a continuous loop. Here are the details:

I start at this screen:

Clicking ‘Choose an organization in GitHub’ takes me to the GitHub SonarCloud App integration screens and I allow all repositories for my company’s organization and complete the SonarCloud app integration on GitHub. It then comes back to the below screen:

Selecting ‘With GitHub’ takes me to this screen:

Within a couple of seconds it again lands in the previous screen to Log In. Clicking again on ‘With GitHub’ repeats this cycle. This goes on in an endless loop.

I am already logged in to both GitHub and SonarCloud before starting the entire process and I have ‘owner’ rights in the GitHub organization I am trying to import.

BTW, the import works for my personal organization. It fails only for my work organization. Any suggestion to troubleshoot this further will be appreciated.

It looks like SonarCloud returns a 401 unauthorized response for the following request which happens right after GitHub app installation step. This is probably why I am thrown back to login page as described above.

Response

401
{"errors":[{"msg":"User is not admin of the ALM organization"}]}

I am already logged into both GitHub and SonarCloud before starting the process and I have owner rights in the Github organization. A bug somewhere?

This was resolved by having another owner of the GitHub organization sign up on SonarCloud.
