I would like to know about the permission files under the metadata directory of each app.$ SPLUNK_HOME / etc / apps / <App name> / metadataThe permission file under the metadata directory is updated when any operation is performed.Will it be done? <Background of inquiry> When checking the Splunk configuration file, the search head permission file mentioned aboveI noticed that it has been updated.After checking the contents, the authority is set individually for the lookup table etc . it seemed that the number of stanzas related to knowledge objects was increasing.Because I was confused because I did not know when the contents of the permission file were updated, please contact me. for splunk version 7.3.2

@prakashraja1999  They get updated everytime objects permissions changed in UI read/write allowed to which role and user, export to system/global.
