How to add user to administer one advanced roadmap plan only.

Question

I have added the user/s to the Permissions Edit field in the Plan access for Plan A.   When the user looks for the plan, they can see it. Other plans (B & C) appear in the list as read only.

So far so good.

However, when they open plan A that they have been given edit access to, it shows as read-only.

They are NOT part of the group that has global permissions for Advanced Roadmaps, because I want them to have access to a single plan only.

How should I be setting up the permissions so they have edit rights to Plan a?

On the Plans/Settings you are able to set overall/global roadmap permissions.  Then you are able to set per plan permissions.  And then of course the users have to be jira project team members having access to the project.

The permissions they get seems to be the least permissions between these three.  If the user doesn't have project access they won't see the plan content.  If the plan is restricted and the user doesn't have plan access they won't see the plan, even if they have overall roadmap access.  If they have plan access but don't have overall roadmap access they won't see the plan.

Thanks for the response. I am facing the same issue. How do you enable them in the global edit group?  What is global mean here?  For the entire project?

Following this as we are finding that the permissions are the lesser of the combined global and plan specific permissions settings.  By not being in the global edit group, the user ends up with View permissions. It looks like to edit a plan the user must be in both the global and plan specific edit groups.  Hoping someone can confirm or dispel this.
