I'm doing some cleanup of System Roles in our Instance and would like to rename some of the current roles? Is that possible without using the 'Copy Role' functionality to basically create a new Role with the new name and then delete the existing Role?
@JOHN AMES The ability to rename would be helpful, however the steps to create a new role (regardless if you are just renaming it or copying it to change permissions is relatively straightforward.
Now everyone is moved to the new role and you can safely remove the old role.
Note: If someone is missed (or more likely a choice is made not to address the Deactivated Users) when the role is deleted that/those users will be moved to the Default Role.
P.S. Having done this action many times with many customers I have never, not even once, seen any misses in the update. I would feel extremely comfortable that this secondary check is not necessary.
Hi @JOHN AMES
Currently, renaming system roles is not an available functionality in Jira Align, however, I found an existing suggestion JIRAALIGN-6348 for adding the ability to rename sys roles.
I'd recommend adding yourself as a watcher of the above suggestion to be kept updated on its progress and vote for it.
