How can I restrict access to Projects for a particular user or set of users?

g.manger

I have a 3rd party entering our Jira Application. I want that person to only see and edit the on project they are associated with. 

At the moment the Default Software Scheme list 6 projects that all users can see. 

I want all new users to only be assigned to Projects so when they first log in they can see nothing until the Project Manager assigns them specifically.

 

So how can i remove the Projects listed in the Default Software Scheme please?

Hello @g.manger 

If you want to affect all projects the same way, you can edit the Permission Scheme assigned to the projects.

Typically the Default Software Scheme permission scheme allocates the Browse Project , Create Issue, Edit Issue, and various other permission to "Any logged in user" or to members of the default user group (i.e. jira-software-users) to which all licensed JIRA users are added.

If you don't want those permissions allocated by default to "everybody", then in the permission scheme edit each of those permissions to remove the "Any logged in user" or default user group. Then add to each permission the Role in each project to which an individual user would be added (on a per project basis) that should grant the user browse/create/edit permissions in that project.

If you don't want to modify the Default Software Scheme permission scheme, you can create a new permission scheme and set the permissions as you see fit, then change each project to use the new permission scheme.

Hope that helps.
