User Management - permission to move items from backlog to scrum board

kate reeder

We're using JIRA Software, Company-Managed project. It appears the only way to give users permission to move items from the backlog to the scrum board for a sprint, is to give them Manage Sprints permissions. However, this also gives them the ability to start sprint, stop sprint, create sprint. 

Is there a way to give a user permission to move items from the backlog onto the scrum board without also giving them access to start/stop/create sprints? 

TIA!

I think to add issues to a sprint a user needs only these permissions:

  1. Browse projects
  2. Create Issues
  3. Edit Issue
  4. Schedule Issue

I don't think they need the Manage Sprints permission.

I haven't tested that out yet.
