Unable to edit context name in JIRA planning Board.

Tarun Sapra

Hello All,

I am a jira admin. but still I am not able to modify the name of the conext in the planning board, the msg. says only the owner can modify the context.

How do i fix this issue?

I think the issue is this - if you read the link carefully in the docs

"'Context name' — Edit the name of your context."

It uses the word "Your" context i think i can't edit anyone's context. is it the case?

Thanks,

Tarun

context can only be edited by the owner (i really don't understand why wasn't jira admin also allowed to edit context name :X)

Hey there, Tarun.

According to the documentation below, it is mentioned that you need to have the Administer Project permission. Can you check if you have the respective permission?:

Which version of GreenHopper plugin are you running on? Can you post the screenshot that you are getting?

Warm regards,

Danial

Hey there again, Tarun.

Perhaps you can check if the project role Administrator has the rightful permission of the Administer Project like I mentioned earlier on?

On the other hand, you can try and manually add yourself into the JIRA Administrator Global Permission and check if you are still not able to edit the context of the Planning Board.
