What Are the Best Practices for Managing an Atlassian Account Across Multiple Projects?

[Logitrain]

Hi everyone! I’m working on several projects that use Atlassian tools, and I want to make sure my Atlassian account is set up efficiently to manage permissions, notifications, and integrations without any overlap or issues. Are there best practices for handling an Atlassian account when collaborating across multiple teams or projects? I’m particularly interested in tips on managing project access, organizing notifications, and using a single account across various Atlassian products. Any advice or resources would be appreciated! Thanks in advance!

Hi @Logitrain

Welcome to the community,

1. If you’re managing multiple projects, try using groups for permissions (like “Developers” or “Viewers”) instead of individual settings. This way, you only need to adjust permissions once at the group level. Manage project permissions

2. Edit Notification Settings in each project to reduce the volume—focus only on critical notifications (like assignments or changes in issue status) so you’re not overwhelmed by emails. Set up email filters to keep Atlassian notifications out of your main inbox, and turn on mobile or desktop notifications for immediate updates. Configure email notifications

3. Consider using the TeamBoard ProScheduler app for Jira to manage multiple projects and resources in one streamlined view, simplifying scheduling, resource allocation, and project tracking

Hope this helps
