Make issue type as read-only

[artem_abushaev]

We are going to change processes in our project. We would like to introduce new issue types and start using them and stop using old ones, however don't want to remove old types.

So the question is - how to disable creation of tickets with old issuetype on project level?

I would suggest changing the workflow for that issue type, and add an impossible condition.

Or if same workflow is used, implement a validator only if the issue type != blocked_issue_type

Hello,

You should modify the issue type scheme for the project. You will be asked to convert all current issue types to the new ones. You can find more info here:
