My organization won't give me "Atlassian Admin" permission because they don't want me to be able to see "everything" across the organization. All I want is permission to add/remove/change the Statuses of Issues. Is there a permission that includes permission to add/remove/change Issue Statuses without giving me access to everything? Neither I nor our Jira Admin at our company can figure it out.
Do you know if you are using CMP or TMP project? This will be designated in the bottom left-hand corner. If you are a project admin in a CMP you can update the workflow and associated statuses. If you are an administrator of a TMP then you can also update the statuses. Also in a TMP project the current users that have admin access to that project can also give you admin access. In other words you don’t need someone at a site admin level to give you admin permissions on a TNP project. So ultimately you don’t need to be a site administrator to change statuses. Now with that said it still may not be advisable to give just anybody the ability to do this as it does have implications to others using that project. There really isn’t a reason to have permission to do this because it’s not something that should change frequently. I will try to work with your current admin’s and give them your needs and have them make those changes on your behalf.
I hope all this makes sense.
Caveat: With Company Managed Projects (CMP) as a project admin you may not be able to change the workflow. It depends in part on whether your project is sharing the workflow with another project.
True but you could copy the workflow and move away from shared WF.
@Jack Brickey I am using a CMP.
