How to make the fields of Issue like Task Read Only

 

I have requirement ,for Issue like Task I should be able to create it and view it but be able to edit the fields in the issue and make it read only.  Can this be achieved without using any plugin? If so how?

Change the workflow for the issue type - you can add a "property" to each step that can prevent edits while the issue is in that status.  Should be jira.issue.editable = false

Hello,

Do I understand correct that you want to create an issue, but you do not want to have permission to edit it?

You can do it. You should grant yourself the Browse Issues, Create Issues permission, but revoke the Edit Issues permission in the project permission scheme.

You can grant permissions either directly to your user or to a group of your user or to a role of your user. The preferred way is to grant permissions to a role.

Hi

If I change the project permission ,it will be applicable for all issues in the project. But that is not what I want. My requirement is for specific issue type only  I want to disable the edit option and it must be enabled for all other issues in the project

I see, 

Then you can use workflow properties. You can find more info here:
