Permissions

Nefertiti Stoke

I need to set some visibility restrcitions for a certain group or individual(s). Let's say I have 15 projects and I have 3 temporary consultants who I want to have permission to view only 2 out of the 15 projects. Within those projects they will be able to create issues, responsd, comment, etc..., but again only to those 2 projects. How do I do this?

Thanks

Basically you want to make sure that the project roles and default project roles are setup so that outside people don't have permissions to use a default project.

Initially JIRA will have a jira-users setup to have permission to a new project. But you want to take that out and use another group, say company-users as having the default use project role.

Then when you have a project you do want them to, you can use the individual project role admin to give say a group called external-users access to

The key is to make sure that what ever default settings you have, these don't let external people in.

See the documentation here - http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA044/Managing+Project+Role+Membership
