Hello,

 

I am project lead for the Canada IT - DCIT project and need admin rights to this project to configure the Jira board. How can I get this access as the person who created this board has already left the company and I need to manage this jira board going forward.

Please advise.

Thanks,

Hi @Sanjana Kawadkar

Your Jira Admin / Site Admin will have access to edit the Board Admin to yourself - these users might be in your IT Support department or similar.

Similarly, they can edit the owner of the board filter if needed, via Jira Settings > System > Shared Filters.

just recreate the board so that you are the new owner. Often the underlying filter is basic, e.g. project = abc, making it easy to replicate for sure. if you have a system admin they can delete the old board.

Contact your local Jira admin and ask to be added as a board admin

We cannot know who your administrators are.  You should start by asking the people around you in your organisation.
