How do I allow a BASIC user role to be a PROJECT ADMIN to invite others to projects?

How do I allow a BASIC user role to be a PROJECT ADMIN to invite others to projects?

Is there a way one user can be set to two roles simultaneously? Or does that user have to jump back and fourth between their allowance for the role?

What other benefits can a project admin have over other users?

Hello Nicole,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

For a user to add other users to a project, they must have a license and be a project administrator.

By default, the group that gives a license to Jira Software is jira-software-users. So a site administrator must go to Administration > Users and add this user to the group. 

After that, a project admin must add this user in the role Administrators in the project (Project settings > People > Add people).

If you have any other questions regarding this matter, please let us know.

Regards,
Angélica
