How can I set a permission/restriction for my workflow transition

[Annie Hong]

Dear Sir,

I custom one transition into workflow but the action will display for non current assignee as below attachment.

How can I set the permission?

Thank you in advance.

Hi Annie,

It appears from your description that you would like to restrict permission to perform a certain transition (Go QA review) to only the Issue Assignee, is this correct?

You can achieve this by JIRA's advanced workflow configuration. The link will explain the details, but basically you will need to add a transition condition:

1. Edit the 'Go QA review' transition
2. Under the Conditions tab click 'Add'
3. Select 'Only Assignee Condition' radio button.

I hope this helps

could you explain in more detail.

do you want to hide workflow action(i.e. transition) to some user? then check http://www.j-tricks.com/1/post/2011/02/permissions-based-on-workflow-status.html
