Hi Guys,

is it somehow possible to grant issue permission to a user in a specific next-gen-project without giving permission to other issues in the project (or the project in general)?

 

Use case: from time to time users from other projects should be able to view or collaborate on a specific issue in our next-gen-project, but not see the other issues in our project.

 

I already figured out that I could create custom roles, and deny access to any issue by default, but only the ones, the role should be able to see (by "adding" the role permission on this specific issue).

But that does not match the use case. I would like to achieve that on user level, not on role level (since a role may include several users, what is not granular enough). Is this somehow possible? By an addon or so? I can't imagin I am the first one having this request.

As a workaround, I could create a custom role for every single user who should access our project, but this seems not to be a proper/practical solution.

This is not possible in NG projects.

@Resu Emos I think you can use Issue security (https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/configuring-issue-level-security-776636711.html). The point is that you can setup roles, groups, users, custom fields to issue security rule which will handle it.

For example, you will add Team members custom field to the issue and you can set up that all users in Team members custom field to issue security rule. Only team members will be able to display an issue.

If you will have some role like "Regular project members" and you will set it to issue security rule too. All the users in Regular project members role AND users in Team members custom field will be able to view the issue.

Sorry, I did not notice "next-gen" so @Jack Brickey is right

@Martin Bayer [MoroSystems, s.r.o.] Thanks for the answer.

As I understand, this only applies to "classic" projects; So would not be a solution for not next-gen-projects? Or did I miss the point?

 

EDIT: Nevermind, Replies crossed each other. Thanks again

Yes, it is possible only in "Classic" projects. You can check following ticket - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSWCLOUD-18843
