How do I change the security on a comment in the "new issue view"

Question

How do I change the security on a comment in the "new issue view"?  In the view that works better (what Atlassian calls the "old view" where customers have more control over the issue display), I can control who sees the comments.  How do I do that now?

Hi @Lee Correll,

That is not possible at the moment, see Comment restriction is missing from the new issue detail view:

We have planned to start work on this feature, Restricted comments, in the next few months (...)

In the meantime, you can opt out of this new issue experience via your Personal Settings > Jira Labs section will have a 'new issue view' toggle to turn it on or off. We will not be disabling this opt-out option until we have rebuilt all the key features of the Jira issues experience you have come to know and love.

Hope this helps,

- Manon
