Avoid too many administrators in a JIRA project

Pierangelo Repetti

Hello,

we are using custom project roles to manage user permissions in projects. The "Administrator" role can- as it says - administer projects.

This gives also the power to assign an Administrator role to other people in the project. 

As a Site Admin, I find a lot of projects have 50-60% of their people with Administrator role. I understand that's a very fast "solution" to bypass permission problems or even doubts, but that's bad in my opinion, from all perspectives: security, accountability, organization.

So my question is: is there a way to limit that ?

I can't do it in Permission Schemes because the "administer project" grant is not granular enough.

I don't see a way to limit the number of users who can have a given role in a project.

Any other way ?

Thanks

There is no way to configure limits (number) on admins. This must be managed by you site/Org admins.
