Hi everyone,
is it possible to restrict the access for the backlog of a Jira Board?
To specify... A bunch of people can see and work with Sprint Backlog /Board, but some of them are not able (or allowed) to view the backlog, respectively items in the backlog.
I know this is not the typical use case for a Jira Board, but for it is fine for me in this special case.
Thanks everyone!

If you are using a Classic Kanban board and can configure the setting you can control the sharing of the board but if you want to control what they can see/do that is done at the project permission level. What precisely is your goal. Note if you are talking about the default boards created with some projects they cannot be configured at all. Access is at the project level.
Thx,
the goal is that our ceo and his vice can create tickets to start a discussion about a topic, which no one else could see. Only when they both agree, that the topic is management ready, it can been moved to the board/sprint backlog so that everyone can see it

So do you really need to make the issue not discoverable altogether or what if it isn’t shown on the board at all? You could create a unique status and simply not map it to any board column. Now a user with appropriate project permission could search and find the issue if they were so inclined but you can restrict who can move issues into and out of this status.

I would create a separate project altogether and restrict permissions. Then move the issue to the other project when approved.

@Gerd_Huhn you can configure access at a issue type level. I would recommend creating a new issue type and restrict the access to only admin users. This way the CEO can log issues of this type if they would like to limit visibility.
This way you can stay in a single project but manage visibility. After review, you could change the issue type and it will then be visible to everyone. See image below on where you can set these issue type restrictions.
