Can I change customer permissions of a JIRA project via an API call?

Stakater SRE _ 1

Hi,

I want to change the customer permissions on a JIRA service desk project via an API call. Is it possible?The default behavior is that whenever you a new project, anyone with an account on https://yourdomain.atlassian.net will have an access on the portal and can send requests to the projects.

I want that whenever I create a new project, its permissions should be set to `Customers my team adds to the project` by default or at least I could change it with a REST api call. Is there some way to achieve this?

Hello @Stakater SRE _ 1,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

When creating a project in Service Desk, by default it should be set as "Customers my team adds to the project", but this only happens on a Standard Jira site.

I tested here both on a Free and Standard Jira site and created a next-gen and a classic project. On the Free site, customer permissions are set as "Anyone with an account" for all new projects. On Standard sites, the permission is set to "Customers my team adds to the project".

There is a bug where I reported this issue a while ago:

• When creating a new project, customer permissions are set to "Anyone"

Please, click on "This affects my team" and also watch to receive updates about the bug.

Regarding the API, there is no endpoint that allows changing customer permissions.

Regards,
Angélica
