I have a problem where I add a user to a private nextgen project but they still don't show up in the access list even when I make them project administrators. I have to make the project "Limited" but that allows other Jira users to browse it and comment on issues. Why is it so difficult to set permissions in Jira. Any ideas?
Hi @cokefour ,
When a project is private, only Jira admins and people you add to the project can see it in their project directory or its issues in search results.
Jira administrators (anyone with the Administer Jira global permission) always have access to your project's settings.
Private
Only admins and people you add to the project can search for, view, create, or edit its issues.
Limited
Anyone with access to the "aclsandbox" Jira site can search for, view, and comment on this project's issues. Only people you add to the project can create and edit its issues.
