Jira Permission Scheme

In Jira, a permission scheme is a set of configurations that determines who can view or interact with issues within a project. Permission schemes are crucial for controlling access and ensuring that sensitive information is only accessible to authorized users. Each scheme consists of various permissions that can be granted to users, groups, or project roles. These permissions include, but are not limited to, the ability to:

• Create Issues - Allows users to create new issues.
• Edit Issues - Allows users to make changes to existing issues.
• Delete Issues - Allows users to remove issues from the project.
• Assign Issues - Permits users to assign issues to others.
• Close Issues - Enables users to mark issues as completed or resolved.
• View Voters and Watchers - Allows users to see who has voted for or is watching an issue.
• Work On Issues - Permits users to log work or progress on issues.

Administrators can customize permission schemes according to the needs of the project or organization, ensuring that the right levels of access are maintained. This setup helps to safeguard project integrity, manage workflows effectively, and comply with data protection regulations.
