Editing Attributes of an Object On Jira Assets

Namirah Shaik

Hi Community,

I work for an organization where I am trying to see changes on a certain object's attribute on Jira Assets when a certain Automation rule is enabled on a specific project on Jira.

The automation rule has been successfully enabled but I don't see the required change on the Object's attribute, so my suspicion behind no change on the attribute is because it might have only a read-only permission and no edit permission enabled.

I need help on how to enable the edit access for an attribute.

Hi Namirah, in your automation it should have an "Actor" this is the "user" that makes the change to your asset (even if its an automation user). In your assets under your roles, is this "Actor" in a role that has edit access to the object in that scheme?

Hi Namirah. Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Does the actor in the automation have permissions to edit the object?

Hi Calvin and Deivid,

Thank you both for your responses! So, here is what I did, I go to Jira Assets, then I select my object schema and then go to "Schema settings", where I see "Roles" and I add my name under the Users as shown, boxed in the screenshot below:

Now, my question is what must be included under the Groups and Apps section of the Object Schema Managers (first column)?

Calvin

Ah they are fine, these are for say if you have a "group of users" in your group configuration you can add the whole group. And apps is for adding certain apps that might need access to your Assets.

I see you put your name which is great, in the automation itself, who is the rule "Actor" is it also you? As sometimes the default is "Automation for Jira" and instead of your name the user in role above might have to be "Automation for Jira" or you have to be the actor of that automation.
