Add new Admins Role with certain rights

[Anton Zaitsev]

In Atlassian Administration - Directory - Groups I can setup Group Product Access.
For every group I can change Products and Product Roles. These roles are different for certain Product. 
It seems that they were created by default.
For example for some groups there's role of User Admin, for some just Admin, etc.

Is there a way to set up these Product Roles somehow? To add new Product Roles, to check the current Role's rights. 

For example I want to add new type or Admin, which has only part of Full Product Admin rights.

Thank You!

Hi Anton,

For Cloud you have the Following segregation: 

Site admin

Product admin

Project admin

I don't think you cna make a custom Product admin role

You can find more info in this article: https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-articles/A-comparison-of-the-different-administration-levels-in-Jira/ba-p/1893975

Hi Anton ,

I agree with Cristian on the roles he mentioned, Site Admin: Controls the entire site, including user management and billing. Product Admin: Manages settings within a specific product like Jira or Confluence & Project Admin: Manages settings for individual projects within a product like Jira.

You cannot create a custom Product Admin role in Atlassian Cloud, as these roles are predefined, meaning you can’t change what a "Product Admin" can do or create a new version of it.

However, you can:

Create Custom Groups, thus  Instead of trying to create a new "Product Admin" role, you can create a custom group and assign it specific permissions.

Go to Atlassian Administration > Directory > Groups.

Click Create group to make a new group (e.g., "Admin").

Assign this group to the specific Product you want them to access.

another way is to adjust Permissions with Schemes: For example, in Jira, you can adjust permission schemes to give this custom group specific access, like managing certain project settings, without granting them full product admin rights.

Go to Jira Settings > System > Global Permissions.

Add the newly created group to certain permissions like Jira Administrators or Browse Users. This allows you to tailor what the group can do.( This is for jira product )

Or you can use Use Global and Project Permissions in which You can tweak global permissions and project permissions to give the custom group the right mix of control and restriction, allowing for a more tailored experience.
