BI privilege setups getting reset after pod refreshes or patching

WM Morrisons Supermarket Limited

Description (Required):

We have setup custom security in BI Privileges screen.

For example, in 'Home and Header' category -> 'Access Catalog UI' we have restricted the usage for only certain custom HCM security roles. Each time when a patch is applied or a P2T refresh takes place, these setups are lost and we are having to do reset them manually.

Is there a way we can restrict this from getting wiped off during patches or P2Ts? Or we at least need a way to easily export/import to restore them.

I found some existing Oracle community thread for a similar requirement with no responses and also raised a new thread a week ago and did not get any responses.

We have at least 1 or 2 P2Ts each month on an average and we have quarterly patches, maintenance packs etc frequently and we end up spending lot of time in setting these privileges.

Use Case and Business Need (Required):

Is there a way we can restrict this from getting wiped off during patches or P2Ts? Or we at least need a way to easily export/import to restore them.
