How to invite a guest user to Jira?

[Fabian van den Barselaar]

I see in the release notes that you can now invite people to be a guest user in Jira, So tried to find the way how to do that, but when inviting people I only have User or User access admin. Is there a setting that I need to switch?

Although the feature was marked Roll-out completed, it wasn't yet. So I need to wait a few days longer.

Now, working with the guest users, please note the following:

For new users you can select Guest rightaway, but existing users you should take their license first and then add them as a guest.

In the project you need to add them as Guest collaborator, but check your permission scheme!

By default guest Collaborators can do everything, so you have to check that!
