How do I add a workflow to a project

James Campbell September 22, 2018

I'm part of the site admin group for my account but I cannot add a custom created workflow to the projects in my account.

 

I've created a workflow, a workflow scheme (and added the workflow for the issue types) but I don't see any option to update the workflow when I go to Projects => (Select A Project) => Project Settings. Like I said, I'm the Site Admin and I've also added myself to all of the other admin groups except for system administration and jira add-on administration. I've followed all of the examples in the following links:

here are screenshots of some of the relevant parts of my settings:

Hello,

You created an independent project (next-gen project). It has limited features. If you want to use the complete Jira functionality, then do not choose the Agility project template.

Thank you for helping me find the answer.

Maybe it would be an idea to add this information to this page?
