Normal users can make internal comments, how do I separate that?

[gcapdevila]

I have a Service Desk project in which customers can actually comment using internal comment instead of normal ones.
Of course, to maintain different communications with internal team and the customers I'd like to have that separated. I have been looking but see no option for this, what am I missing?

Hi @gcapdevila

portal-only customer accounts are not able to comment internally as a Jira Service Management license is required.

If you customers have an Atlassian account and product access to Jira Software, then they are able to make internal comments on a Jira Service Management issue.

The only way to avoid this is not to grant them the Browse Projects permission for that service project (within the permission scheme, either via group or role).

Hey @Dave Mathijs

Thank you so much for your answer. It clarifies how it works and why this was happening. Unfortunately this doesn't solve my issue, but still it is really helpful.

Thanks :)
