Restrict ticket access at user level

Mo Omar_1m0zyv

Hi all, and Happy New Year.

Hoping someone can help with the following query. Essentially my aim is to create security-level access that only allows access to a ticket if the user is a participant in that ticket. Below I've gone into a bit more detail about the scenario types. 

 

Overall Scenario: 

 

Users can ONLY access tickets where they are a participant.

Background: The user has access to the project

• Project > People

• Project > Permissions

Scenario: I can access the ticket

• Given I am the Reporter, Assignee or Watcher of a ticket

• OR I belong to the it-dev group project role?

• Then I am a participant in that ticket

• And I can access that ticket
  (Project roles and permissions determine what user can do in that ticket)

Scenario: I can NOT access the ticket

• Given I am NOT a participant in that ticket

• Then I can NOT access that ticket

What if a non-participant is tagged in a comment?

Scenario: I can be tagged in comments

• Given I am a participant in that ticket

• Then I can be tagged in the comments

Scenario: I can NOT be tagged in comments

• Given I am NOT a participant in that ticket

• Then I can NOT be tagged in comments add as watcher first.

Hi @Mo Omar 

The first part - restricting access based on various user components - is possible.

You can set the visibility of Issues at an Issue level using Issue Security Schemes 

Note: You can't use "Watchers" in an Issue Security Scheme - but you could use a custom User Picker (multiple users) field instead.

---

The latter part, I'm not sure if restricting mentions in this manner is possible natively.

There is a feature request related to this though, that you can vote for/watch - see: JRACLOUD-37386

Note: Issue Security Schemes are only available in Company-managed Projects - if you have a Team-managed Project, these schemes are currently unavailable. There's also a feature request for this - see: JSDCLOUD-8749
