Exposing only one project to a guest user

Question

Hi all, this has been covered as a question but I haven't seen an answer that addresses it directly.

I have one guest user and I only want them to see one project and not the other.

I've edited the "Browse Project" options in the project I want to hide and remove ALL of the grants. I log in as my guest and... I still see the project I want to hide. I can't browse the project so I know it's doing something, it's just not doing what I want it to do.

What particular permission(s) must I disable to make it hide the project from the list that the guest sees? It's not "Browse Project".

Many thanks,

Peter

Hi

If that's the case, then yes, it should be a bug and I suggest you open a ticket about it. Because it should not be like that.

Anyways, glad you found a workaround.

Hi Elifcan,

I can't share the screenshot because of sensitive information, but please take my word for it, I've experimented over several iterations. I've removed all grants from the browse project permission and my test user persona still sees the project in the list.

But these other Project permissions :

- Manage sprints

-View development tools

- View Read-only Workflow

It seems that if the user has one of these granted, they see the project in the list. It seems to me to be a bug. You can test it yourself, but I have found a workaround by disabling access to all project permissions for the group I want to restrict so I'm going to leave this for now. I'm just saying that the behaviour that everyone tells me should happen, does not and it's pretty clear.

Hi

Actually it is the only permission you need to configure. If the user does not have browse project permission, and if they are not site admins, they will not see the project on the project list. Can you add some screenshots so that I can understand your need better?
