Assign Work Types to Space Roles

Hi everybody,

 

is it possible in Jira cloud to permit selected work types only to selected space roles? E.g. only developers may create a bug and only sales persons can create a feature request?

 

Best wishes

Karsten

Hi Karsten,

This isn't possible with Jira Cloud out of the box, as permissions can't be configured per work (issue) type.

Yes, this can be achieved using ScriptRunner Behaviours in Jira Cloud. You can create a Behaviour for the Create Issue screen that checks the current user's project role (or group) and dynamically restricts the available work (issue) types.

For example:

Developers will only see Bug as an available work type.
Sales users will only see Feature Request.
