Jira Project Name Permissions

[Avinash Singh]

Hi,

We have a requirements where certain users should be able to search all projects names in jira but not view the issues.  

The browser project permission gives read access to both the projects and issues. We want the ability to search for the project in jira and request access to the project. Is this possible?

Regards,

Avinash

You can use issue sequrity scheme for this.

Set to all issues level which does not allow this group to view it.

Hi Vasiliy,

I have tried this but the users are still able to view the issues within the project.

The is what I have done:

1) Added the user to the browse project permission.

2) Created a new issue security scheme with the following security level. That the user is not part of.

User Role

Project Role (Users) (Delete)

It seems like the browser permission overwrites the issue security.

Have you set sequrity level to all issues?

[Vasiliy Zverev]

If sequrity is not set, permission scheme applied: https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver071/configuring-issue-level-security-802592414.html

ah thanks. I need to bulk update all issues to use the security level.

[Vasiliy Zverev]

Yes, you need to use bulk update

Thanks. Is it safe to do this on 166454 issues? or should be rather do it after hours?

I have never done for such mny issues. I would reccomend to do blocikg reindex after this to make sure thaat indexes are OK.
