Hi, I'm new to Jira.. 

I'm unable to create subtasks to an issue i'm currently assigned on. 
I know subtasks are enabled, as my colleagues who are also cc'ed on the project, are able to see "add subtasks" under "more" 

Not particularly sure if I have restricted access somewhere. I'm the Project Lead for for which this issue (AIM-25732) belongs to.

Hi @Tenzin Khangtetsang,

Can you add subtasks to the Issues you created yourself?


To create sub-tasks, you need to have the Create Issue permission in the parent issue's project. There is no option to set security on a sub-task, as sub-tasks inherit their parent issue's security levels if any have been set.

Jira does not natively restrict sub-task creation like this, so you'll need to focus on whatever add-ons you have that may be removing your access.
