Change default priority for a project

clsa November 16, 2020

Hello,

we are using Jira 7.1 right now.

Is it possible to change the default priority for a particular project? Under "Issues", I can only see "Priorities".

Hi @clsa ,

You could do this by creation a new priority scheme for that project.

If you go to "priority schemes" under your global administration:

https://hostname/secure/admin/ViewPrioritySchemes.jspa

you can create a new scheme, and associate it with that project. On your scheme you can set a default priority (which would then be applied for that project only)

Hello @Dirk Ronsmans,

Thank you for your answer.

Unfortunately your mentioned link "https://hostname/secure/admin/ViewPrioritySchemes.jspa" doesn't work here:

Is it a configuration issue or doesn't it just work under the version 7.1? I can only see see "Priorities":

Hi @clsa ,

Seems I indeed jumped the gun there. It appears to only be available from v7.6 and up.

Without scheme's I don't really see how to change the default one. Another way could be to use an automation/post function to set it at/after creation.. but then it's not really default, more changed to default :)

@Prathmesh Mengane no indeed, priority schemes are not a feature on Cloud. (Any tier)

@Dirk Ronsmans hello, I'm not sure if I understand your last comment.

Do you mean we cannot create priority schemes in the Jira Service Management (Cloud) product?

@Ivo Stoyanov ,

Correct! At this time you are not able to create priority schemes on Cloud. You will only have a single set of priorities that are used in all projects.
They are however working (and it is in EAP) on this feature for Cloud
