Hi @Kavitha Chandramohan ,

Are you able to achieve this?

I have similar requirement could you please let me know your inputs.

* We should be able to create a project (Master project)
* The master project can have multiple sub-projects
* One master owner of the master project
* Respective project owners
* Admin and sub-admin for master and each sub-projects
* Similarly, the option to add team members and project status for both master and sub-projects

Also, I need your help to understand whether all this information/data can be passed through API to a different system.

Thanks for your input.

Let me set up a security scheme for the component.

On your first point I would recommend using either Project Categories to group your projects together, or use Component/s, which in essence act like sub-projects, however it sounds as though you may already be using those for something else.

To restrict access based on Component I would recommend setting up a Security Scheme where each Component has a different option. You could then use ScriptRunner to write a post-function that will automatically set the security level on creation based on the Component field value.
