Permissions to configure Slack Integration in a Jira Project

[Magdalena Zhisheva]

Hey Folks,

Who can configure Slack Integration in a Jira Project?

We had a case where one user was able to configure it for a project, where he does not have any admin permissions, so may be I am missing something?

Thanks all in advance!

Cheers,

Updates:

• A Whole Jira Project can be integrated with Slack through a Jira command in Slack - /jira connect 

Bug Report: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-79660 

Please, vote and comment on that bug, so they can consider it and start working on it!

• A single ticket can be "linked" to a Slack channel ny a user if that user has a Browse project permission in the related ticket's project.
  
  Hope this helps!

Best Regards,

Hi all, 

Here is the reply from the Atlassian Support: 

"From your description, you would like to understand how to restrict the possibility to integrate Jira with Slack, right? If so, any user with Browse Project permissions is able to integrate JIRA with Slack.

We know that this could be better, for this we have a feature request to improve it, that can be tracked here: 

• https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-67002 

Hope this will be useful for other Jira Admins!

Hope this will help other Jira Admins!

HI @Magdalena Zhisheva ,

If you are project admin for the project, then you configure the project integration. So, that is not desire result, then simply revolk project admin privileges.

Hi @Benjamin , 

Thank you for your reply!

The user is not a project lead.

Based on my test, latterly everyone can do this from Issue -> Actions 

Any advice on that?

Thanks,

HI @Magdalena Zhisheva , 

Thanks for the screen shot. Which Slack connector are you using? May need to contact the vendor if there is an option to limit the capability.
