How can I stop a Role from editing an issue when in a certain status

[Stephen Burke]

I have been trying to limit editing permissions according to the page https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/how-to-limit-editing-permission-to-certain-groups-for-a-particular-issue-status-802171723.html.

when I try it with a role the blocked role cannot see the issue at all and gets an error.

I must admit I have not completely understood the Property value and why it is different from the jira.permission.edit.group.1

Can someone explain this to me ?

thanks

Hello,

jira.permission.edit.group.1 gives the edit permission to a group, not to a role. If you want to let a role edit an issue, then you should use:

jira.permission.edit.projectrole.1=10000

10000 is the id of the project role. You can find more info here:

https://www.j-tricks.com/tutorials/permissions-based-on-workflow-status

And this property does not stop a role from editing. On the contrary, it lets a role to edit an issue. You should enumerate roles, which can edit an issue:

 jira.permission.edit.projectrole.1=10000

jira.permission.edit.projectrole.2=10001
