Permission condition in workflow and remove default JIRA buttons

[Jyoti Kishnani]

I am facing two issues.

1. I want to either remove "Assign" , Assigne to Me" buttons from the screen Or just have these buttons visible only tow administrator. Bascially, I want only Administartor to be able to assigne issues to users. Let me know how to achieve it
2. I have created custom workflow where user send bugs for review (defailt workflow opens bug after creation). Again, I want only administartor to be able to assign and open bug. I tired putting condition to this step but does not work.

Many Thanks,

I created a new user group and that user group was the only group that could change state for my review state. If I remember the steps correctly,

1) create a new user group 'review_group' and assign the users that group

2) Add a post function that only that group can transistion to the next state.

Thanks, I was able to solve this problem by setting permissions.

1. Go into the permission scheme and make sure only "jira administrators" have "assign" permission.
2. Same again for "create" permission. Conditions only apply to transitions on existing issues so I'm not actually sure what you're actually trying to do, or what you've looked at on this one.

Thanks for prompt response. . I run into other issue. The workflow I have is like following

1. "User" creates a bug and after this immediately bug goes under "Review" (i modified the workflow to achieve this)
2. "Review" step contains a screen which has "Assignee" , "Priority" and "Milestone" fields. Using this custom screen, Admin will open the bug to developer.

So now when I make only Admin to have "Assign" permission, I don't get to see "Assignee" field on this custom screen which pops up.

Also, I am not able to see "Assignee" field in default screen if I do not add "users' to Assign Issues under Permissions.

Assign Issues

Ability to assign issues to other people.

• Project Role (Administrators) (Delete)
• Project Role (Users) (Delete)

You could try using post-function in CREATE transition (OPEN step) and hard code the Assignee name -if it is a single person who'll be assigning bugs.

Or

even make your Assignee to be Automatic which can inturn point to your administrator.

I was able to slove this problem with permission settings.
