Hello, I use the free version of Jira cloud (with less than 10 users currently in my setup). I would like a way to disable the export button on the issues page for a group (or all) users. Disabling the API call isn't required - just want to disable from the UI. 

I have tried the announcement banner approach, but that didn't work for me. I also installed ScriptRunner but didn't understand how to use it. 

Any ideas on how I can achieve the result without having to pay 30$ a month for Atlassian governance?

Hello @Kaveer Partnership 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

There is an open change request with Atlassian to add this functionality. You can add your vote to it here:

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-74232

If you subscribe to the Atlassian Guard product, you can follow the guidance here:

https://support.atlassian.com/security-and-access-policies/docs/prevent-data-export/

 

Other than that I have not found any references for ways to disable issue export in Jira Cloud either natively or with a third party app.
