Is it possible to restrict the creation of Teams in Jira to only Jira administrators? I would like to ensure that only authorized administrators have the ability to create new Teams within our organization’s Jira instance
Hi @Fredson N_
Teams means Groups right please let me know if iam wrong.
Groups creation option is only visible to Jira Admin,No user can create a group on their own because its not visible to them.
If you go to the gear icon, Products > Plans/Permissions, check the Shared Team Management permission. I think when Atlassian rolled this out they rolled it out to everyone. Try restricting this to just your Jira Admin Group.
Groups are within the admin console. Teams is a newer feature that you'll see in the top menu bar in Jira. I think Teams are managed via the Plans permissions.
Groups is intended for admin level access granting. Teams is more of a social feature but if well configured, it can be utilized in some (but not all) areas of Jira.
Hello @Fredson N_
At this time it is not possible to restrict who can create a team under the Teams menu.
There is a change request for that to which you can add your vote:

Hi @Alex Hall
Where exactly do you see such permission?
@Viktoriya Boneva that was two years ago. Atlassian has changed all sorts of stuff and I don't see that available anymore.
If you're looking to prevent people from creating teams, the only thing you can do is vote on these feature requests, which are sadly 6 & 3 years old.
