Hello,

If you use Jira Server / Data Center, then you need to be a Jira administrator to create a project.

If you use Jira Cloud, then non Jira administrator users can create next generation projects. To create a classic project still needs the Jira administrator permission.

Jack Brickey

it depends.

On cloud or server - you certainly need to have project creation permissions - talk to your admin. The one exception is #2 below...
On cloud - if your admin has enable Next-gen projects then anyone can create a NG project.
On cloud or server - being a project admin is singular to a project it does not allow you to create other project in and of itself.

Why it is that way ? Why only in JIRA cloud it is supported ? I thought it is a basic requirement for any Scrum Master to create projects and administer them. What are the available plugins supported in this regard ?

Thanks for your response.We are using JIRA server instance. Then What are the marketplace plugins available for creation of projects ?

@srikrishnap , I'm confused by your follow up question. You don't need an addon to add projects you just need permissions to do so. Speak to your admin about getting the necessary permissions. Even if there was an addon for this (doubtful) it would require appropriate permissions otherwise it would violate the Jira permissions which would not be allowed.

Is it possible to create projects with Project admin role instead of JIRA admin permission ? Kindly clarify.
