We have a requirement such that creation/editing or any other activity for that matter should be blocked on particular issue type and should be unblocked after sometime as well. Is there any way to achieve this functionality so that we can block/unblock of user activity on particular issue type?
@Sandesh TM
What is the business use case for doing this?
One approach that I can think of is, have a specific workflow for the issuetype that you don't want to allow users to create issues for. In the create transition, add a Validator with condition that can't be met.
That way if user tries to create the issue with the particular issuetype they will get error. When you are ready to allow issue creation against the issutype remove the validation.
Hi @Sandesh TM
Welcome to the community,
You can achieve this by using issue security scheme,Have a look at Configure issue security schemes for more information on issue security.
Hope this helps

Thank you for the response.
Business reason is that business people are drawing reports from the system, if the users make any actions on that issue type it would cause discrepancies in the reports. So that's why any actions on all the issues of that particular issue type should be blocked for sometime.

Yes we also explored the permission scheme of Issue security scheme, that is for project level, right? But what we need here is to control all the actions(create, edit, comment, review etc) on specific issue type, other issue types of the same project must not be impacted.
@Sandesh TM you can refer the KB of issue security scheme to restrict issuetype of specific user
