How to limit issue types to certain people

Edmond Dang August 11, 2021

Hi team,

I have 1 project with 2 boards. One of the boards is strictly for our internal team to use for "Internal Projects" and the other is opened to the public for clients to cut an issue to us. The only thing is that when people within the company cut an issue to our team on the mainboard, I don't want them to see the option to cut an "internal projects" issue. How do I filter this in the JQL so that only our internal team can cut "internal projects" issues?

Thanks team!

@Edmond Dang you can use Validators to do this.

But you need to set rules in workflow to validate if certain users have the role or group to create issue.

If you need more details i can record a tutorial in youtube to you.

I hope I helped you.

Be aware that if you go this way, you will be creating an ugly user experience and you'll probably need apps to provide the validators.

Well remembered at this point, thanks @Nic Brough -Adaptavist-

This solution I mentioned @Edmond Dang , would be if they are issuetypes like "Manager" or "Team", well focused on roles/functions. In issuetype generics like "Task", "Subtask", "Epic" , it will be very bad without add-ons to correct notify the users.

Thanks in advance!

@Gergely Groupama you can use issue security level + automation to do this :)

Or use validator in the workflow to block this type of create for only some users.

You can put a message text in the screen to avoid open too :)

Hey, @Carlos Faddul !

My organization is not familiar with the security level concept and we don't have automation so the first one is out.

The validator option never actually occurred to me... facepalm... I'll look into that and maybe we can avoid a script.

I'm not sure what you mean by the message text.. Just tell them "don't open certain issuetypes, please"? :D Or what?

Thanks,

G

@Gergely Groupama validators can make your life easier :D

Hey, @Carlos Faddul !

The validator does indeed solve the issue!

It isn't the most elegant solution because a simple user would not understand the lack of permission error message.

So, I am interested how I can make one of those cool blue message texts... :D Can you help with that too?

Hey @Gergely Groupama , this is a field named "Message Custom Field"

You need only to use some tags of html/css in context to make pretty for users :D

You do not.  If someone can create an issue in a project, then they can create an issue of any type.
