Sharing a Jira ticket with other users no longer works

Question

Hello

I wondered if anyone knows what can stop Atlassian cloud Jira accounts from allowing you to add people from your organisation to your tickets.

I have been using the account and writing tickets whilst being able to add anyone from the organisation to the tickets, until last week. I no longer have the option option to add people when typing anyones name in once the ticket has been submitted. Normally peoples names would appear as you type - but no it just says 'no option'.

Could this be an admin issue that needs fixing? Does anyone know what stops this option working?

Thanks so much

This can happen if the admin makes changes to the global permission and removes a group that should have access. Normally you do not make a lot of changes to it, its more like set and forget...

Ok thanks so much Mikael - will go and find out who that is and hopefully that resolves the issue. Do you by any chance have any experience with how such a thing can stop working?

Yes, an admin needs to check if this global permission has changed. The can get to it by going to Settings > System > Global permissions.
