Secure Statuses from being renamed or deleted

Question

Hi,

Is there any plugin or customisation that can restrict global and system administrators from modifying or deleting the globally used "Status" objects in JIRA Data Center? The accidental modification of the Status object has wide-ranging effects on all Projects but it can be so easily modified; it really is a risk.

Any suggestions or examples on how this could be achieved would be very much appreciated.

Thanks,

Andrew Henderson

Hi

never heard of one. That role of system admin needs that ability to add statuses when creating new workflows. Policy is to educate your system admin. A good system admin should know this.

Hi @Andrew Henders ,

unfortunately you can't limit that feature. A Sys Admin/Admin should have enough information to verify impacts about this change. Moreover there are some alerts during that operation.
