Report on private Jira projects

Aaron Hutton

Lots of questions/answers on how to make your Jira project private, but what about the opposite? How do I - as a manager responsible for Jira access and security companywide - locate private projects that I've not been made a member of?

If there is a privilege that lets me pierce the privacy veil within my organization, that would be best.

However, it is sufficient to report on the project names and owners, without seeing any of the other details of the private projects.

Hi Aaron,

so it sounds like you are an administrator of your instance, correct? So for every regular project making use of a permission scheme, you could add yourself to it (for example simply adding your user or admins in general to the Administer Projects permission) and you would have access to every project. But that doesn't apply to next-gen projects if I'm not mistaken. If that project is private, you have no chance to get into it unless the owner adds you on the "People" page of it.

Best, Max

Hi Max -

Thank you for the reply. Yes that's correct. Ideally, me and my team would set up Jira projects and security for teams, but there were some projects made outside this process - we found out about them when colleagues were asking us for access and we couldn't find said projects.

Thank you for the feedback. We'll try that first, because the method you described is how we'd prefer to administrate projects rather than the next-gen "People" method you referred to. Otherwise we'll have to go asking around, I suppose?

"Go asking around" - poor Aaron! 😅Seems like it. You could additionally think about restricting the creation of next-gen projects until you trained your colleagues.
