Jira administrator cannot install add-ons

[OomStephan]

Good day

I am posting this again as my previous post was marked as spam.

I am trying install an add-on from the atlassian marketplace. This use to not be a problem, but now when I try, I only get the option to request add-on installation. Seems like somewhere along the line, the permission to install add-ons has been revoked

What permissions should I have in order to do this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, I am the only person in my company that use to be able to install add-ons.

Regards

Hello,

Only Jira System Administrators can install add-on. Make sure that you are a System Jira Administrator in System -> Global permissions

Ah, I checked and there is no users in the system administrators group.

How do I add myself, as I am the Jira administrator for our company?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you, this was the solution.

I proceeded to run queries on the jira database to add myself to the system-administrators group and that solved the problem.

@OomStephan. hi!

Are you sure that this add-on is compatible wtih your jira? Check it once again.

You also can doenload jar on obr file and instal it from UPM. Hahe you tried this option.

Best regards,

We are running Jira 7.12. I am pretty sure, the add-on I am looking for is Jira Enterprise Mail Handler.

I am not sure how to install from the jar file but I will look into it thank you.
