Jira Permission

Question

Is it possible to create a permission where users can view the Project Board and issues on it. They shouldnt be able to click on the issue unless it is created by them.

I know if I change the permissions for Browse project, I can make the board to show issues only created by the reporter but I am trying to show the whole board to all users with the issue names, I just dont want them to click on any issue and view. They should only be able to open/edit the issues created by them.

I know its little confusing. Thank you in advance

Hi @DJ,

The board is dependent on the project it is pulling issues from. I'd edit the "Browse Project" permissions to all users in your organization. I'd then edit the "Create" and "Edit" issues permissions to reporters, admin's, etc. (to your liking).

Another option is to go into the board configuration and under general, share the board with all users. The only issue you will run into is that issues may not populate if the project permission scheme is not shared with them.

This can't happen, because it makes no sense.  You need to decide whether a user can see an issue or not.  If they can, then it will appear on a board, and they will be able to "open" it.   If they can not see an issue, then it will not appear for them anywhere.
