restrict comment visibility to team

Methods Digital

We are trying to setup comment security policy, so that some comments are only visible by some groups/roles.

We have seen this on other JIRA Cloud instances, but for some reason can't see or enable them on this current instance.

Can someone guide us to what is missing?

thanks in advance.

Hi @Methods Digital,

Comment visibility restrictions depend on which type of project you're using. If you're using a JIRA Core or JIRA Software project type, when you open a comment field, you'll see a little padlock at the bottom right hand side of the comment field, and when you click it, it'll present you with a list of options that you can restrict the comment to. The administrator can decide whether they'd like to make the options either project roles, or project roles and groups for your JIRA instance. For Service Desk projects, it's a little different, instead of the padlock, you have the option to comment internally, or to share the comment with the customer. 

If you're not seeing these options at all, let me know, or consider raising a ticket with our Support team.

Thanks,

Warren
