How to associate a Team to a Project

[Del Jensen]

Is there a way to associate a team(s) to a project and have that field filled in for each issue when the ticket is created?  

One way it via the workflow but we have a standard workflow that we use for our projects and having to maintain different but same workflows for each team becomes an admin nightmare.

How are you defining your Teams in Jira?

[Del Jensen]

They are setup via the People->Start a team, given a name and then members of that team are added.

I can see the various teams via the Plan->Teams view.  Also Plans -> View Shared Teams.

Ah, ok, I was thinking that's what you meant, but there's a few other things it might have been.

These teams are not really Jira artifacts, they're a bit more global.  Jira uses basic users and their groups for access, and not a lot more.  Teams in this sense are collections of people anyone can choose to group together.  There's no connection between a project and a Team, unless you automate something to do it manually (at the moment - Teams here are also quite new and I suspect Atlassian have plans to make them a lot more powerful)

Thank you @Nic Brough -Adaptavist- , That makes sense and is what I was finding.
