How to add Non Jira Contributers?

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to add Contributors to our JIRA PD Project of which I am an administrator.

We want to test out only Atlassian ID users, these people do not JIRA access.

When I hover over the Contributor role on the Access page it has a yellow warning triangle and an alt text that says...

"Only users of Jira can be contributors in this project. If you would like non-Jira users to contribute, you need to turn on the Jira Product Discovery contributors group.

Where do I turn on the Jira Product Discovery contributed group?

When I click on the configure text for the row of Contributors I get a 404 page not found.

@David.brimley the 404 is a bug on our side! We'll make it a nicer flow soon so you know why you can't access that page.

Thank you, Nick, but I don't have Admin access to the site, so I'll ask our folks to do that. It seems like once this group is turned on, I should be able to add contributors myself as the JIRA PD Admin of that project.

BTW any idea why I get a 404 when I click on the configure link?

Thanks @Nick Haller! @David.brimley please note that only site admins can turn on the contributors group and add users to it.
