Managing User Permissions

 

Overview

T4J allows the Jira Administrator to restrict access to certain features of the plugin according to Jira user groups. User permissions are global - that is, they apply to all projects activated for T4J.

Configuring permissions

To configure user permissions you must be a Jira Administrator.

  • Select the Jira Administration icon > Manage apps and then T4J - Test Management for Jira > Permissions from the sidebar. (Keyboard shortcut: Enter "." and start typing "permissions".)

  • To grant every Jira user access to all T4J features, set the option Restrict user access to No.

  • To restrict access to individual features, set the option Restrict user access to Yes and then configure permissions as desired.

  • To configure individual restrictions, locate the given permission in the Permission table and add the groups to which you want to grant the permission in the Groups column. To revoke permission, remove the group from the groups column of the given permission.
