Hi!
Within Jira Service Management Cloud, looking for a way to restrict customers to specific projects within a service desk portal but still allow them to add new customers/participants to the project.Saw this article below that restricts customer's access to specific projects. But while testing, when creating requests via email, CC’d emails were not included in the ticket and were not able to reply or access the ticket.https://confluence.atlassian.com/cloudkb/how-to-restrict-customers-access-to-specific-projects-only-in-jira-service-desk-cloud-815566896.htmlIs there a configuration that would allow:
Thanks,Simon
Hi Simon - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!
I assume that number 1 above is working for you - that's pretty straight forward.
For number 2, I am not aware of being able to do this through CC'ing them in an email request. But it might be possible.
But if the customer is viewing the issue in the portal view, they should be able to click the Share button and add an email address there.
Hi John,I know that you are able to allow customers to add participants by CC'ing them through email requests, see attachment. But by doing so, it disables the ability to restrict project access for customers. Is there a way to have both, 1 & 2 at the same time?
So exactly how does it disable the restriction?
Seems like if the Service project access setting is set to 'Anyone on the web', you can no longer restrict access to this project in the portal, allowing customers from other projects to see it.
I don't think it so much the Permissions that are getting disabled but more the fact that if you make the service project accessible to 'anyone on the web' to allow people to CC in other people then you won't be able to restrict access to other customers from a different project to see it from the portal since you allow 'anyone from the web' to use its service.If I understand correctly from this link, you can only restrict access to the project within the portal by setting the Project Service Access to 'Customers added by agents and admins'. This configuration doesn't allow customers to add new ones.But in my case, when clients submit tickets via email, they CC people that haven't yet been added to our Jira customer directory which won't make them participants in the ticket. For them to be able to be added, I would need to set that configuration to 'anyone on the web' which seems to make it impossible then to restrict access to the project in the portal.The permissions scheme doesn't offer the ability to specify a customer org.
