How can i change my admin email adress? 

Every time I want to change it, this notification comes: This field is set by your administrator.

I am logged in as Admin User. The admin user who created my account can't change it, he gets the same message.

It may be a bug, I've tried it in Jira Sv 8.5.0 ant it works.

Just make sure you have the "administrative mode" on

[Adria Alonso]

Well, it asks for it when you try to go to manage user so..

Thanks for your help.

I have access to the account management and I can change all my data, but not the email address.

[Adria Alonso]

It its certainly strange, your user has been admin since the beginning?

Also consider this if you have access to the database:

No I wasn't Admin from the beginning, the admin who created my user changed my role to Admin later on.

Is That relevant?

[Adria Alonso]

I don't know if that is important but I would suggest a restart of the Jira Instance if has not been restarted since that user role change. That may help.

Hope its helps

Okay, thank you very much. I'll try that.
