Provide access to 3rd party contractor

[Ali Khalid]

We are working with an contractor and want to assign them issues. We want them to update status of the ticket with progress.

Additionally, we want to restrict their access to only 1 project and do not want them to be able to access or update other project initiatives.

Hello @Ali Khalid,

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

You can achieve that by customizing the permission scheme of your project in specific, by standard, projects will use the default permission scheme, so you must have this project using it's own exclusive permission scheme.

Think of a permission scheme as the list of things people or a group of people can do, you can have several projects using the same list, but you can make one or more projects use their own specific list, check out the documentation below.

First this one, to understand how you can separate permission schemes:

• https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/configuring-project-permission-schemes-868982875.html

Then to understand the permission schemes themselves:

• https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/managing-project-permissions-776636362.html

I hope this helps you figure it out!

Thank you & best regards,

Rodrigo,

Thanks for the response.

The link to separate permission scheme doesn't work, can you provide the updated url.

Thanks.

Ali.

So sorry @Ali Khalid, I pasted the wrong URL and did not notice, here you go:

This documentation shows how to associate your projects to other permission schemes.
