How can I block new users from creating Next Gen Projects?

Ronald Smith_b1dvv8

I have never used Next Gen projects, but others here have them. I created a project for external users to see issues that we are using to track milestones for them. I have created it's own group with its own permission scheme. They can only see the new project. The issue I see is that they still have a Create Project button. That button has Classic Projects greyed out, but Next Gen Projects are still available. Where can I remove the create permission from this user? Thanks!

Hello Ronald,

Thank you for reaching out.

To restrict users from creating Next-gen projects, you just need to remove them from the groups added in the Create next-gen projects Global permission or remove the groups from the permission itself. These would be the steps:

- Navigate to JIRA Settings > System > Global Permissions

- Under the permission Create next-gen projects, Identify the groups that are allowing your users to create next-gen projects and remove it, or navigate to User Management and remove the user from those groups.

P.S: If you select the last suggested option, make sure you will not be removing them any access when removing the users from the group.

Let me know if this information helps.
