Is it possible to restrict the creation of Teams in Jira to only Jira administrators? I would like to ensure that only authorized administrators have the ability to create new Teams within our organization’s Jira instance
Groups are within the admin console. Teams is a newer feature that you'll see in the top menu bar in Jira. I think Teams are managed via the Plans permissions.
Groups is intended for admin level access granting. Teams is more of a social feature but if well configured, it can be utilized in some (but not all) areas of Jira.
If you go to the gear icon, Products > Plans/Permissions, check the Shared Team Management permission. I think when Atlassian rolled this out they rolled it out to everyone. Try restricting this to just your Jira Admin Group.
Hello @Fredson Nogueira da Silva
At this time it is not possible to restrict who can create a team under the Teams menu.
There is a change request for that to which you can add your vote:
