Sonarqube UserGroup premission changes automatically

[n.bala (Balachandar)]

Hi, Recently the permission assigned to the user groups for the project are removed automatically. We checked the group access and other setting of the project and doesn’t seem to be any issue. Not sure why this is happened. The issue started happening in the last 3/4 week and earlier it was fine. Every time, we add the permission again to the project. Need assistance or a pointer to the issue.

Thanks
