In Jira Cloud, I see the below groups but not sure what is the actual difference and use case
1. system-administrators
2. atlassian-addons-admin
3. site-admins
4. jira-administrators
5. administrators
Can anyone explain this in simple way where to use which group and why there are so any groups which looks similar on the functionality side
Hi @Ravina
In Jira cloud basically there no Jira System Administrators and Jira Administrators it has only Administer Jira global permission.
The basic group structure is as follow
administrators - Grants access to all applications and their administration features (excluding Site administration)
jira-administrators - Grant access to the administration features of Jira
jira-software-users - Grants access to Jira Software
site-admins - Grants access to all applications, their administration features and Site administration, which includes managing users and bills
atlassian-addons-admin - This group is managed internally by Atlassian Connect and can’t be manipulated via the UI. It should not be possible to modify membership of this group or add it/remove it from the JIRA Administrators global permission.
Hope this will help.
Hello @Ravina
This document explains the purpose of the different groups that are default groups created in the JIRA instance.
