How to hide a group from others in Jira?

Question

Hi,

I'm using Jira server 7.11. I am hoping to set up a private group. We do not want any access to any of the other projects/groups. We also do not want any of the other groups to be able to see our projects.

Please let me know what I need to do to form this group separated and hidden from the main Jira dashboard.

Thanks,

Chandra

I'm afraid it is impossible with 'Any logged in user'.

I recommend ask your jira administrators to make changes in permissions scheme. Permission scheme is based on 'roles' and the project administrator can set the role as desired.

P.S. In truth from my experience: less permissions - better. I try avoid 'Any logged in user'.

We do not want any access to any of the other projects/groups. Can it be done when the other projects have permission scheme with "Browse permission" as "Any logged in user" ?

Hi @Sekhar Chandra ,

Could You please clarify what mean 'our projects'? You can hide project just deny 'browse permission' in permission scheme.

In jira possible hide 'Browse users and groups' but it is global settings. I'm afraid You cannot do it from box. Maybe exist plugin to hide one group.
