Create Issue - restrict to creating on Product Backlog

[Keshav Tadimeti]

Dear all

We would like to restrict the Create Issue permission to allow a user to create issues in the Product Backlog and not in the Sprint Backlog.

Is this possible? As far as I see there is no other permission that I can make use of.

Thanks in advance

Hello Alexey

Thanks for responding. The JQL based approach only controls viewing.

With this approach issues created by external team members will never appear on the Sprint Backlog.

What do you mean by Product Backlog? the Backlog is available for Scrum and Kanban boards. It is just a state of an issue. Boards are just containers for issues. Issues appear in a backlog by a JQL query which you define for the board. You do not create issues for boards. You create issues for projects and then you define, which issues will be seen on a board, by a JQL query for the board. That is why you should limit the JQL queries for your boards.

if you want to control visibility of issues you should use issue security schemes
