How to modify a project workflow?

[Javier Prados]

My JIRA user has the administrator role in a project, but if I go through the project settings and workflow section, on the action list doesn´t appear the edit option, what can I do to modify the project workflow?

Regards and thank you very much in advance

Hi @Javier Prados , welcome to the community.

Based on what you have described here I suspect that the user is a project admin but not a system or organization admin. If the workflow in the project is a shared workflow with other projects then a project admin cannot edit the workflow. The way to deal with this would be to copy the workflow and edit it as desired. Then associate the new workflow with the issue types in the project thereby replacing the shared workflow.
