Cannot select a variable for version auto-increment without admin access in Bamboo

Summary

Cannot save any changes to auto-incremented variables at configureDeploymentProjectVersioning.action (Edit Deployment Project > Release Versioning without admin or restricted admin access. After checking or unchecking a variable for auto-increment and hitting save, no error is presented and you're returned to the deployment project. Upon re-entering the Release Versioning UI you can see the changes haven't been committed.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a build plan with a plan variable E.g. variable = version, value = 1
2. Grant full permissions to the build plan to a non-admin user
3. Create a deployment project using that build plan as a source
4. Grant full deployment project permissions to a non-admin user
5. Login as non-admin user
6. Edit deployment project > Release versioning
7. Add variable to version > variable you created before
8. Check the checkbox to select variable you created before for auto-increment
9. Save

Expected Results

• Changes are saved

Actual Results

• When returning to the Release versioning UI, changes haven't been saved and no error was presented when saving.

Notes

• If you revoke Edit permissions from a user for the Build plan, you successfully get an error message that says:

  Your updates result in changes to whether a plan variable is automatically incremented or not. You do not have permission to make changes to the plans variables.

Workaround

Only current workaround is to grant Restricted Admin access
