Permission to share the project in sample Scrum project

[James Yu]

Hello

I just started the GreenHopper (installed and licensed) and click on "create a sample project" from Evaluating GreenHopper.... Thought I would "poke around in some sample data..." How do I get permission to share the project? BTW, I logged on as the administrator in JIRA.

Thanks

• You do not have permission to share with Project: 'Sample Scrum Project'.

This is the unique project key. The project key:
* should be short as it is displayed as a prefix on each card;
* cannot be changed once the project is created;
* should not contain sensitive information, as it may be visible to users who do not have permission to view the project.

Late to the party, but this may be useful for other users: note that you need the Browse Projects permission in the Default Permission Scheme to create a project from JIRA Agile. If in the scheme it's only the Users role that has the browsing permission (which is the default configuration), check JIRA Admin > System > Roles - your account may not be in the role by default.

As Agile can't check for this permission before creating the project (and hence not give the user the option), an error is thrown afterwards.

Hi James,

Ensure that you have the Create Shared Objects in the Global Permissions as specify at https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/GH/Creating+a+Board
