Restricting workflow edit access

Dheeraj Segapalli

Any user in the Jira global adminsitrator group can create/modify a workflow. There can be several users related to multiple projects in that group, but how do we restrict that admins to their particular project,board only, so they other workflows in the system can't be edited by them.

For example, user A who is in the global admin group having access to ONLY project A, edit ONLY workflow scheme of A, but not other workflow schemes.

No, an administrator's job is to look after the whole Jira, they have access to administrate everything.

You should not have lots of global admins, but you should consider delegation - if you have Jira Software, simplifying workflows enables project admins to amend their workflow.  You can also delegate some workflow admin to project admins in later versions of Jira by giving them "extended project admin" in the permission scheme.
