Security tab

Jira admin can configure the global app permissions. In addition, each chart manager can define the security roles for a given chart.

Permissions for everyone makes a chart public. Meaning that all Jira users who are granted the app visibility permission can see the chart.
Role based permissions restricts access to only those groups and/or users that are specified.

There are three chart security roles:

  1. Managers - can do everything a chart owner can: update chart configuration, including chart permissions update, as well as update chart tasks. Chart managers can also share a chart with the public and delete a chart if needed.

Chart owner is always a manager and can’t be removed from managers list.

 

2. Editors - can edit tasks on a chart (move/resize tasks, change assignees, update task duration, etc.), but can’t edit current chart configuration.

Starting with app version 6.0, users with the Editors role can now reorder tasks in the Gantt chart.

3. Viewers - can only view data on chart. Note: this doesn’t affect user's ability to update a task directly via Jira’s issue edit screen.
