User Management

[Asel Turgunova]

Hi,

We have a cloud jira installed in our company. I encountered a problem: when creating projects, all users are added to all projects by default. How can I make it so that when creating a project, no users are added automatically, but only manually and selectively?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Asel Turgunova

Typically when i see this, its because the permission scheme is configured to grant access to all users by default, usually via the "Browse Projects" permission being set to "Application Access: Any logged-in user."

Try this to fix it:

1. Create a new permission scheme

2. Set project permissions to only specific groups or roles (i prefer role)

3. Assign this scheme whenever you create a new project

Hello @Asel Turgunova 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

What types of projects are you creating? Get that information from the View All Projects page under the Projects menu, looking at the information in the Type column.

For Team Managed projects the Access settings of the Project may default to Open, which would enable access for all users of your site. Refer to this page for more details.

When you say users are added, do you mean that you see users and/or user groups In the People/Access area of the Project Settings? Or are people able to access the project without specifically appearing in the People / Access area?

If people are able to access the project without being added to it then it is the Permissions Scheme for Company Managed projects or the Access settings for Team Managed projects.
