Submitting an Idea to Jira Product Discovery WITHOUT the Creator Role

[Jodi Jones]

I am a HUGE fan of Jira Product Discovery!!  I am adding some people as Contributors who I really just need to be able to view and vote.  I'm looking into allowing them to add Ideas I can then "triage" and add all the right fields, etc.  When I look at the Contributor role, it has the option for "Submit an Idea".  The description says "Create an idea via an intake form,  Chrome extension or chat apps - typically used as a way to gather ideas from contributors."

Can someone provide guidance as to how I could use either of the below to get ideas from Contributors (users who are not creators):

1. An intake form

2. Microsoft Teams (is that even possible?)

Thank you!

Hi @Jodi Jones 

Where did you find that description of the Contributor role for Jira Product Discovery (JPD)?

Please look here to learn what the roles can / cannot do, and possible options to allow a Contributor to create Ideas: https://support.atlassian.com/jira-product-discovery/docs/manage-your-team-product-access-new-experience/

Kind regards,
Bill

@Bill Sheboy - Project settings --> Access --> Click on the "Contributor" hyperlink in the Role column.

Thanks for that reference, and...if you scroll down and note the "Submit an idea" section, it shows one must be a Creator.  The alternative is to allow all Contributors the ability to add ideas or use a form.

Here are the references Atlassian provides for using a JSM form to create the idea:

Hey Jodi,

i use automation for this. I put a rule that if a checkbox is ticked at epic creation, it automatically creates an idea and put in a backlog bucket for triage.
