Disable WorkLog visibility

[FrancoB]

Hello,

is it possible to disable the visibility of Work Log content for a group of users in a specific project?

Precise I don't want to disable it, just prevent some users from viewing the content.

Hi @FrancoB! 👋

Native Jira doesn’t support hiding time tracking UI elements (like the "Log Time" button or work log tabs). Even if a user can’t log or view work logs, the time tracking fields will still appear in the issue view.

However, if you need more control, you might want to explore JetTime — a privacy-first time tracking app for Jira Cloud. It lets you fully hide time tracking features from the Jira UI for specific user groups, using global permissions. You can also restrict users to viewing only their own work logs, giving you greater flexibility and privacy across teams.

Hi Franco,

No that is not possible out of the box. You would need an add on like Tempo Timeheets.
