      Atlassian Update – 1 October 2018

      Hi everyone,

      Thank you for sharing your comments on permission schemes per issue type. This suggestion has been resolved as Won’t Fix in 2011, but recently, while updating the workflow for all suggestions on jira.atlassian.com we have changed the status from Closed to Resolved. This technical change triggered a few questions from you, so we’ve decided to post an update for clarity.

      We have reviewed this suggestion again and how it would fit alongside our strategy and other customer priorities. We will not be re-opening the suggestion because we are not planning to invest in adding permissions per issue type in Jira. While we absolutely understand the logic behind this request, we strongly believe that we should focus on making Jira simpler and easier to use rather then introduce additional complexity. We stand by the decision posted by Roy Krishna in 2011 in this comment.

      Meanwhile, in some of the contexts this knowledge base article can be useful How to set the Security Level of an issue based on group membership.

      Kind regards
      Katarzyna Derenda
      Product manager, Jira Server

      Now, when a group has the permission to create an issue, it could create EVERY types of issues available. It's a complement to project specific issues types. (http://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-1602)

      For example, If we have external client (like me right now ) I would be interrested to limit his issue creation right to only bugs, features, external client requests (custom type).

            There's no analogy with workflows, screens and fields in the current design. If they can be customized per issue type, why not permissions?

            +1 this feature would make our work with Jira so much easier. We are trying to figure out a workaround right now but haven´t been successful so far.

            I believe this feature would be very interesting. We have several separate issue types and today to restrict the creation we have to use a user/group validator, but even so any user can fill in the fields, etc., until they receive the error alert.

            It would be enough to apply where there is a user create validator, showing only those types of items for each user.

            It would be much more convenient for teams to have the access to the permitted issue types only, rather picking target issue type from the 15 items list

            Is there no creative workaround for this? This is a huge ask for anyone that is managing a company with multiple teams. For instance a QA team should only be allowed to enter "QA Test Case" or "QA Bug" and client testing, during UAT, should only be able to add "UAT Bug" and Technical Leads should only be abl to add "Task", "Story", or "Sub Task". 

            This is pretty common. I agree this absolutely would make Jira much easier.
