If i delete the jira user group no can log in anymore

I am not asking you to delete the jira-users group from jira.

The situation here is, all the users in jira are in jira-users groups by default. And you need to restrict the edit permission for some projects. So, you need to add the jira-users group only in the browse permission scheme. And for other permissions, create a project wise group and provide them the access. Make sure that jira-users group is not added in permissions other the Browse Projects. This will allow all the users in jira-user group to view the project but they cannot edit them. And add the project wise groups to the permission that can edit the project.

Thanks,

Nikhil

yes i have thats not right i think ;)

Have you allowed the jira-user group in the permission scheme for all the projects?

[Ingrid van den broek]

I made one for a group but they still can see everything. I point out that de persmission scheme must be the new one instaed of the default. But still they can see all the projects, and edit them.

Hello,

Providing the Browse Project permission to the uesrs or group of users will provide the read only rights to that specific project. This will be achieved only if there is no issue security scheme associated with that project. If there is issue security scheme associated with any of the project then those users must be added in the security scheme, as it will restrict the users to see the issues if not involved in the Security scheme.

Thanks. Nikhil.

You need to separate out the users into logical partitions and set up the projects so that they understand that a person in partition A can't see any projects that don't match.
