How to restrict permissions to users on sprints?

[Bunty]

Hi All,

I want to restrict permissions to the users to manage sprints. Only project admins and product owners should be able to drag and drop the issues on the sprints.

I've removed all roles in the permissions schema except Project admins and product owners but still, users are able to drag and drop the issues from the started sprints who are in different roles. Users should have only view permissions on the screens.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in Advance,

Manikanta.

Hello,

You should remove all permissions except Project admins and Project owners from the Transition Issues permission.

Hi @Bunty,

there's a permission about managing sprints in Jira. But this permission allows the following actions:

• Creating sprints
• Starting sprints
• Completing sprints
• Reopening sprints
• Reordering future sprints
• Deleting future sprints
• Editing sprint information (sprint name and dates)
• Moving the sprint footer

As you described, you want to restrict people from adding issues to sprints. Adding issues to sprints is in effect editing editing an issue and providing a value to the sprint field. So you would need to remove the edit issues permission from these issues.

However, this also restricts people from editing the issue - so I'm not sure if this is what you want.

Cheers,
Matthias.
