What is the difference when we create project with shared configuration in jira cloud and on jira on

[khushboo_puri]

When we create a project on jira on prem with shared configuration then later if we change configuration in any project, will that change be reflected in other project?

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Configurations (schemes) are not changed "in a project", they are global objects that some projects are set up to use.  

If you change something a load of projects are using, then yes, you're changing all the projects.

Hi Khushboo,

Sure, you can always change your configuration, even if it was copied from an existing project.

Hi @khushboo_puri 

Yes that is correct. If there is a need to change configuration in one project then you can always create a copy of that specific configuration. For example if a separate workflow is needed for one issue type then you can create a new workflow and use a new workflow scheme to attach it to the project.

I hope it helps.
