Saving Site Information modifies the Site Permissions!
Hi everyone,
I have tested this scenario on two E3 tenants and one Business tenant:
- In a modern site click on site Site Permissions
- Go to Site Members, set it from Edit to Read, close by clicking the X
- Verify the site permissions and that Everyone except external users is still set on Read
- Close by clicking the X
- Click Site Information
- Modify the title or just click Save (it does not change the scenario)
- Click on Site Permissions and "Everyone except external users" is set as Site Members thus they have Edit permissions again, I have checked this with some users.
- Click on Advanced Settings, it takes you to the SharePoint permissions
- The "Everyone except external users" group is set in the Visitors Group after step 2
- After step 6 the SharePoint Visitors Group is empty and "Everyone except external users" can be found in the Site Member SP Group.
Is anyone else having this issue? Changing / Saving the Site Title for example has an impact on the permissions.
Kind regards,
Juan
