Some of our users have lost access the JIRA Service Management Customer Portal

We have recently transitioned to Jira Premium. Some of our users are now reporting a loss of access to the Jira Customer Portal. Upon checking, their accounts still exist. Sending a new invite creates a new account, which is currently our workaround to help them regain access.

I haven’t been able to pinpoint the root cause of the issue. Do you have any idea why this might be happening?

Hi @Henry Collantes

How have these users initially been created? Did you upgrade from "Standard" to "Premium" ?

Do the orginal user accounts still the "Customer" role in Jira Service Management?

(see tab "App Access" in the user details).

Best regards,

Kris

Hi @Kris Dewachter 

These users were created before we transitioned to Premium and were originally assigned the "Service Desk Customers" role in JIRA Service Management by default.

Hi Henry - Welcome to the Atlassian  Community!

If the account already exists, check to see if they have permissions to the JSM product. That should not have changed just by a product upgrade, but something might have happened where someone else took them out because the Premium subscription is so much more expensive.

@Henry Collantes 

Welcome to the community, addition to what other Community Champions stated, you may also want to contact Atlassian Support (https://support.atlassian.com) for their backend assistance on this matters.  They have access to the system logs which can provide more information  on this issue.

Switching subscription plan should not cause user accounts problem, unless the actual site URL has changed to something else.

Hope this helps.

Best, Joseph
