Is it possible to restrict the creation of certain issue types to a group or a project role ?

[Raphaël NORYNBERG]

Hi everyone,

I think I saw on the Jira Knowledge Base, that it's impossible to do it natively, and they suggest some paid add-on ...
I prefer to ask here because it seems odd to me that this feature does not exist...

So anyone knows how to do this natively ? Or at least with a free add-on ?

Thanks in advance for your answers

Hi @Raphaël NORYNBERG ,

my suggestion is to create a specific workflow and associate it to issue types in teh Workflow Scheme. After doing that you can define a specific validator on creation so that just specific users with specific permission can do that. This is a way to do that natively without external apps.

Hope this helps,

Fabio

Yes it is a good workaround, thanks !
