How to setup "Group-by-option" at a new-gen board for non-admin team members?

Svetlana Holmen March 19, 2020

Hi! In a new-gen JIRA Board there is an option to see issues from different perspectives as Group by: Epics, Subtasks, None etc.
BUT this option is available only to someone with admin rights.

Since the "Group by option" is only a way to view things, not a way to change things, we cannot see any good reason why it should only be available to admins.

In our case:

  • for a Product Owner is better to see tasks by epics,
  • for developers by None or by Subtasks (as it's the only way to find subtasks).

Team members started asking admins to shift from view to view. Now we've provided admin rights to all, but what is a point to have access rights in this case:)

Could it be setup for non-admin team members?

If not, could it be please fixed it in a way that non-admin team members can use "Group by" option. So people can set up as they find better to work with the board? 

It was already discussed earlier under  topic "Is there a way to Show sub-tasks (grouped under parent story) on Next Gen Scrum boards".

Thank you!

Best regards, Svetlana
