Info

For the later 2 configuration is identical, namely you can define it for

  • Projects of the board, so users who has access to board selected projects will have appropriate role for the board

  • Other projects, so users who has access to other selected projects will have appropriate role for the board

  • Users/Groups, so only selected users/groups will be shortlisted to have appropriate role for the board

User needs to be at least in one of those configurations to receive appropriate roles for the board or to be a member of the Group that is part of above configurations

Board Administrators

coming soonAdministrators are usually Board Creators, but can also be changed anytime. There should be at least one Administrator of the board so the App won't allow to delete all of them.

If you Board Administrator is not available and you need to make changes to board settings … no worries, Jira Global Administrators are Board Administrator by definition.
