NOTE: This suggestion is for JIRA Cloud. Using JIRA Server? See the corresponding suggestion.
Hi everyone,
Good news for customers on the Jira Cloud Enterprise subscription. We’ve rolled out a new capability that allows Jira administrators to delegate the ability to create company‑managed and team‑managed spaces from selected custom templates to specific users and groups.
Admins can now capture their organisation’s best‑practice configurations as custom templates and safely let selected users and groups create new spaces from those templates, without requiring full Jira admin permissions.
We understand this doesn’t fully cover every use case raised in this suggestion, so we are keeping this ticket open to continue learning from your feedback.
We’d really like to hear how you use this new Enterprise capability and what further improvements would help. Please to reach out at dmelikov@atlassian.com
if you’re open to sharing more about your use case and requirements.
Thank you again for all your input and patience over the years.
Regards,
Dmitry
Product Manager, Jira Cloud
Original request description:
Currently, I need to give my project manager the jira-administor permission in order for him to create new projects. Unfortunately, this opens up the possibly of him doing other stuff, like changing the mail server. Not that he would, but when you give permissions...
Suggestion: Make Create New Project a separate global level permission.
Workaround in case you need to track project creation events
Consider using Webhooks, which offer the ability to receive callbacks for project creation events, or even use an Automation rule that will send an email when a project is created:
![]()
Those could give you the ability to track project creation events in case there is a concern of having admins creating projects when they shouldn't. That does not prevent the action but at least gives visibility.
