If using issue level security in jira. How does that affect users data view on dashboards
How doesa it affect JIRA reports.
Example I have a query for issues created in the last 30 days which is displayed as a chart on a dashboard. Say there are 30 items returned but 5 are highly sesitive and have issue level security applied.
As Admin I will see all thirty , as a regular user , with their dashbaord
1) Only show 25 results
2) Show 30 in the chart but only allow view of the 25 the user has access to
For a sprint report , with the same scenario what would a regular user see?
Thanks Nic,
So 2 people could be at the same status meeting with different stats on the same report?
I guess it makes sense but it does seem odd
Yes. It's one of the things you have to educate your users about if you do decide to use issue security.
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
If a user cannot see an issue, then they get no information about it. They can work out that it is or was there, as they will see a "hole" in the issue numbers, but nothing else. They won't know if the 5 issues are secured or deleted, and the system will behave as though they've been deleted for that user.
So, it is excluded from reports completely. Your reports will tell the unpriviliged user that there are 25 issues. The numbers in the sprint report that that user runs will calculate everything off the 25 issues they can see.
