Limit Issue Types during Creation

[Marc Jason Mutuc]

I'm using jira.permission.create.group on the workflow transition Create but it doesn't seem to work.

The goal is this, I have 10 Issue Types as follows:

IT01

IT02

IT03

IT04

IT05

IT06

IT07

IT08

IT09

IT10

But would like GROUP1 to only see IT01. How do I go about this?

Hello,

You would need an add-on for it. For example, you could use the Power Scripts add-on:

There is a feature, called Live Fields. This feature can do actions on fields in the Create, Edit and Transistion screens. You can find more info about Live Fields here:

There is a similair guide to your requirements here:

https://confluence.cprime.io/display/TR/Forbidding+users+to+create+some+issue+types

In your case the script would look like this:

string[] allowedTypes = {"IT01"}; 
if( userInGroup("GROUP1", currentUser())) {
     lfAllowSelectOptions("issueType", allowedTypes);
}

Errr... yeah... I don't think we can take on another add on. We have script runner though. I've just added a validation but would really like the issue list to be more precise and not have extras that the user cannot create.
