Edit workflow when I am project adminstaritor

Hi Everyone,

I can't Edit the jira  workflow when I am project administrator

[Walter Buggenhout]

Hi @Raghad AlRoumi,

If your project is company-managed and the workflow in your project is not a simplified workflow, that is expected behaviour. Most of the configuration in a company managed project is managed by your Jira administrator (e.g. configuring fields, screens, issue types, permission and notification schemes etc.)

The project administrator has the following permissions:

Permission to administer a project. This includes the ability to edit project role membership, project components, project versions and certain project details (Project Name, URL, Project Lead, Project Description).

See this support article for more details.

Hope this helps!

@Raghad AlRoumi -

I agreed with what @Walter Buggenhout suggested.  To supplement his statement, if your project is a Team-Managed project type, then the project admin will be able to update/customize the workflow associated to the project.

Company-Managed project type projects will require Jira Admins right to implement the changes against project WFs.

Hope this also helps.

Best, Joseph Chung Yin
