View issues from Project1 in Project2 board, but don't allow full browse access to Project1?

Lenard Fudala

I have the following

A board in Project2 that shows issues from Project1 with a certain attribute (label or status)
Project2 has members that do not have browse access to Project1

Is there a way to grant access to a Jira group if an issue is in a certain set of statuses that I can apply to Project1?

The goal is to have issues from Project1 visible in a board in Project2 that shows statuses past Backlog, such as Selected for Development, In Progress, etc.

Hi @Lenard Fudala,

As @Ismael Jimoh mentioned there is no way that users can access the issues for which they don't have browse projects permission

But as a workaround you can consider Issue Security

1. Grant access to project2 members in project1

2. Create security levels as "Restricted" and "Public" where restricted has only P1 members and Public has P1 + P2 members

3. In the initial/create issue should be set with Restricted security level(Therefore even P2 members has access to P1 they can't access those issues)

4. once it's moving from Backlog or certain status change security level to "Public"

Refer THIS article for configuring Issue Security Scheme

You can use post-function in workflow transitions to set security levels

Hope this helps

Leo

There is no way.
You must have browse permission privilege to see an issue In the other project and this means you can see the contents of the issue as well.

Consider raising a feature request for this functionality at https://jiar.atlassian.com (check if there are any existing feature requests).

We don't want to hide contents of an issue that shows up in Project2. What we want to do is not give the ability to browse all issues in Project1, only ones that contain a certain attribute.

What I'm hoping for is some automation that achieves specific issues being visible, just like they are in this: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/sharing-an-issue-from-a-restricted-project-with-someone-outside-that-project-937174343.html

If a group could be granted browse on issues when they transition, that would be ideal.
