Can we change the App admin of the group to another person? Who has access to do this change?

Hello @Surya Rajeevan 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

For which App do you want to change the admin?

Typically for each App you can allocate the Admin role to as many users as you choose and also revoke the admin role from people.

This document will give you information on which admin roles have permissions to do what:

Typically you have to be an Organization Admin in order to grant and revoke the App Admin role for other users.

Hi, 

I need the change for Jira/Confluence. Currently I have user admin access and another team member is the Organization/App admin. I need to get the App Admin access to control the billing/plan activities.

Getting access to manage billing is not necessarily the same as getting App Admin access.

If you only need admin access for the Jira and Confluence apps, then review the document I provided and work with your Organization Admin to determine the User management experience applied to your Organization, and who can grant you that access.

If you also need access to managing billing then you will also need to determine the Billing experience applied to your Organization as that will impact who can grant access to manage billing.
