Admin Permissions

Dhaneshwar Kumar June 19, 2018

Hi,

How to create a group of users that will be able to see what I going on but not make any changes to the work items. Hopefully, they will also be able to create bug reports/feature requests, etc.

I have checked Jira administrator account  but I was not able to find manage user roles and permissions section.

Thank You.

If you are not a Jira Admin you cannot. Have your Jira Admin create the group for you. Then if you are a Project Admin you can apply the group to the project in question on the Permissions view.

if you are truly a Jira Admin then:

  1. Go to Settings > User Management > Groups
  2. Create a group and add members
  3. Go to the the project in question - project > Settings > Permissions
  4. Assign the group you created in #2 to the permissions you wish them to have

Dhaneshwar,

Are you a JIRA admin in your project? Only a JIRA admin can create users and groups.

Please see documentation below
