      Problem Description

      Project admin unable to create sprint or stop sprint, below error is seen:

      You need the Manage Sprints permission for all the projects in the origin board to create a sprint
      

      When you have filter query of labels that span across other project where the same user is not a project administrator of. This happen despite having the filter constructed with project specific, for more information refer to the steps to replicate below.

      Steps to replicate

      1. Create 2 projects with 1 issue each on the project (Project A and Project B)
      2. Create a label (example of the field) and mark it on the issue for both project (example: labeling)
      3. Grant the user for test project administration and manage sprint permission of project A
      4. Ensure that the user have no such permission for project B
      5. Create a board with query below:
        project = "Project A" and labels in (labeling) ORDER BY Rank ASC
        
      6. Load the board for test user that follow the criteria given for step 3 and step 4

      Expected result

      User able to create sprint, since the filter should only return issues from project A

      Actual result

      User unable to create sprint, error is seen

      Workarounds

      Suggested

      • Provide user "Manage Sprint" permission across all permission schemes

      Alternatives

      • Create another temporary board without any sub query Eg: Project = TEST order by RANK ASC, create the sprint there. Use quick filter to filter the fields instead.
      • To start sprint, get administrator to initiate the sprint at this moment.
      • Provide a user "JIRA Administrator" Global Permission to Start/Stop any sprint
