"Local Help" button: how can disable it or limitate to a group/role?

Stefano De Gaetano

Hi all,

In my JIRA 6.3.15 environment, there is a way to disable the Local Help button near the fields Priority, Issue Type, Resolution, etc?

The best solution is to have the ability to configure this button in order to grant the right to see it only to a particular user, group or role....

It is possible?

 

Thanks in advance.

Final result: how to limitate if a user does not belong to a specifica group

 

<script language="JavaScript">

var user = getCurrentUserName();

if    (isUserInGroup(user, 'InternalGroup')){

    //do nothing

} else {

    AJS.toInit(function(){

        // init on load

        AJS.$(".aui-iconfont-help").hide();

    })

    JIRA.bind(JIRA.Events.NEW_CONTENT_ADDED, function (e, context) {

        // init on refresh

        AJS.$(".aui-iconfont-help").hide();

    });

}

function getCurrentUserName()

{

    var user;

    AJS.$.ajax({

        url: "/rest/gadget/1.0/currentUser",

        type: 'get',

        dataType: 'json',

        async: false,

        success: function(data) {

            user = data.username;

        }

    });

    return user;

}

function getGroups(user)

{

    var groups;

    AJS.$.ajax({

       url: "/rest/api/2/user?username="+user+"&expand=groups",

       type: 'get',

       dataType: 'json',

       async: false,

       success: function(data) {

           groups = data.groups.items;

       }

    });

    return groups;

}

function isUserInGroup(user, group){

    var groups = getGroups(user);

    for (i = 0; i < groups.length; i++){

        if (groups[i].name == group){

            return true;

        }

    }

    return false;

}
