Jira Project Users and Roles

As a Jira Project Administrator, you have the ability to control the access to your project.

You may add/remove groups and individual users to your project to grant and restrict access as required.   



Default Roles:

  • Administrators – Responsible for system related tasks
  • Developers  - Able to watch and update tickets
  • Users – Able to view and create tickets

Everyone who interacts with the project needs to be in the Users role.  Anyone that needs to create and update issues must be in the Developer role.  To view projects, members of the Developer role also need to be in the User role.  Administrators will also need to be in the User role to view projects, and the Developer role to edit and watch issues.

By default, a new project includes the default system wide group: administrators as seen in the screenshot in the beginning of this article. The project creator must assign users to the appropriate Administrators, Developers, and User roles.
