      If you attempt to get the /rest/api/2/mypermissions response from JIRA, it returns false for all permissions, even though user has sufficient privileges.

      Reproduce

      curl -U user:password https://instance/rest/api/2/mypermissions

      returns

      {"permissions":{"DELETE_OWN_WORKLOGS":{"id":"42","key":"DELETE_OWN_WORKLOGS","name":"Delete Own Worklogs","type":"PROJECT","description":"Ability to delete own worklogs made on issues.","havePermission":false},"CREATE_ISSUES":
      

      Where "havePermission":false exists for all permissions listed.
