Can we restrict users/roles to create boards and dashboards in jira

Can we create new permissions for  creating boards(to restrict board and dashboard creation)

[Jeroen Poismans]

Hi,

There is no separate permissions for board / dashboard creation. What can be restricted of course is the content, but not the creation of boards / dashboards themselves.

There is a suggestion op en for this however:

Hi @Jeroen Poismans 

We don't want users to create boards and dashboards without project admin permissions. Is it possible? 

We are using Jira Data center.

Hi,

No, there is no permission for that. Users will be able to create private dashboards and boards.

Hi @khushboo_puri 

I am not sure what problem you are trying to solve and the circumstances. But hope the below info helps understanding what is currently possible.

Currently all licensed user can create a private board or dashboard. To share it and make it visible to other users, they would need a global permission (not project level control) - "Share dashboards and filters"

Hi @Fazila Ashraf 

Can we restrict dasboard and board creation using global permissions on jira data center?

Hi @khushboo_puri , 

Same with DC also. 

See https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver/managing-global-permissions-938847142.html 

Create shared objects -> Permission to share a filter or dashboard globally or with groups of users. Also used to control who can create an agile board.

You can use this permission to control who can share their private dashboard data accessible to others and also on who can create an agile board.
