How do I edit visual elements of a board

[Diego Alvarez]

Hi, 

I have created a board and I am trying to edit the overall visual aspect to improve user experience.

I have come through the link below, however when I click on my board I dont see any Configure section.

Any Idea?

Thanks

What type of board is it?  If you created the board but have no "configure" option, then I would guess it is a "Business" board, which don't have configurations, their setup is a direct read of your project config.

[Diego Alvarez]

Yes, it is the business version.

In this case is not possible to edit it?

[Diego Alvarez]

It is possible then to edit the whole project?

Adding to what Nic has already shared with you, the documentation of what's possible with the board is  here - https://confluence.atlassian.com/jiracorecloud/working-with-boards-800712866.html 

Please see a detailed discussion on this topic - "boards for business projects"

As I said, they don't have configurations, they take their settings from your project.

Hello @Diego Alvarez

On every board on the top right there is a button named "Board" and when you click on it you will see the option to configure (the link which you have shared) but you need the right permission for it.

From the docs

You need to have special Board Admin rights to change board configurations. If you created the board, you already have them.

[Tarun Sapra]

If you don't have admin rights, you have to request them from your Jira admin or the current board owner/admin.

I created the board and have admin rights. Yet I dont see anything...
