Hi @Marcel Babik 

In Jira Cloud, the Bulk Change (Bulk Edit) permission is managed through Global Permissions.

If you are a Jira Administrator:

  • Go to Settings -> System -> Global permissions, or open this link directly:
    https://<your-site>.atlassian.net/secure/admin/GlobalPermissions!default.jspa
  • Look for the permission: “Make bulk changes.”
  • Check which group has been added to this permission.
    • Add yourself to this group, or
    • Add a new group to this permission and ensure you are part of it.
  • Click Save changes.
  • Log out and log back in to refresh your session.

If you are not a Jira Administrator, please reach out to your Jira site admin and ask them to follow the above steps on your behalf.

Hope this helps!

Regards
Rajat

Hello @Marcel Babik 

Adding to this...

We are a user community, using our own instances of Jira. We are not the administrator of your Jira instance. We can advise you on how to address your need, but we don't have access to your instance to actually grant you any permissions.

If you are unsure who the administrators of your instance are, some people you can try reaching out to are:

- the person who first instructed you to access that Jira instance

- the leader of projects that you work on in Jira

- the technical support team for your company (or the company that owns the Jira system you are accessing)
