Restrict Jira edit of certain issue type for set of users or group

[Santhosh Kumar Arogyaswamy]

I want to restrict editing the Jira of certain issue type only by set of users or group.

Example: I want to allow edit the Bug issue type only Testers or certain users.

Can someone help with this ?

Hello,

You can create a separate workflow for the Bug issue type and add the jira.permission.edit.group workflow property to each status:

jira.permission.edit.group=tester-group

You can find more info here:

Hi Alex,

Yes, this is what i have done. But is there any other easy way? Because i have to keep adding in each transition.

Thanks,
Santhosh

@Santhosh Kumar Arogyaswamy , can we add project roles instead of groups in workflow property?

[Muhammad Ramzan(Atlassian Certified Master)]

you need any automation plugin which provide conditions inside the work flows. For example in Script runner, you can add condition that only a specific role can perform a transition.
