      Problem Statement:
      Currently, Jira Cloud does not provide a straightforward way for users or integrations to retrieve all teams associated with a given project (or space). While teams can be linked to issues via the "Team" custom field, there is no native API or UI feature that lists all teams connected to a project as a whole. This makes it difficult for admins, project leads, and reporting tools to get a holistic view of team ownership and collaboration within projects.

      Proposed Solution:
      Introduce a feature (API endpoint and/or UI enhancement) that allows users to retrieve a list of all teams associated with a specific project or space in Jira Cloud. This association could be based on:

      • Teams linked via the "Team" custom field on issues within the project.
      • Teams assigned to project roles or permissions.
      • Teams referenced in Advanced Roadmaps or other planning tools.

      Acceptance Criteria:

      • A REST API endpoint that returns all teams associated with a given project key or ID.
      • Optionally, a UI section in the project settings or overview that lists associated teams.
      • The API should support filtering by team type (shared/private) and provide team metadata (name, ID, shared status).
      • Documentation and example queries for retrieving this information.

      Business Value:

      • Enables better visibility of team ownership and collaboration within projects.
      • Supports reporting, automation, and integrations that require knowledge of project-team relationships.
      • Reduces manual effort and potential errors in tracking team associations.

      Notes:

      • JQL currently supports searching issues by team, but not retrieving all teams for a project.
      • "Spaces" are not a native Jira concept, but if this refers to Confluence or other Atlassian products, similar functionality could be considered for those platforms as well.
      • This feature would align with ongoing efforts to unify team management and improve reporting across Atlassian Cloud products.
