Set up Custom Permissions

Smart Checklist emulates global Jira permissions by default as follows:

• Users with the "Browse Projects" permission will be able to browse issues and see Smart Checklist content in these issues. They will not be able to bring any changes to checklists though;

• Users with the "Edit Issue" permission will be able to modify checklists (mark items as done/undone; edit content within the items, add/delete items, etc.);

• Users with "Administer Projects" permission are able to create/modify templates and set them as default. You can grant proper permissions via Project Settings → Users and roles → Add users to a role.

To Enable Custom Permissions

1. Go to Settings → Manage apps → Smart Checklist Settings → Permissions tab

2. Enable Custom Permissions by toggling these options:

• Custom permissions to work with Smart Checklist

• Custom permissions to “View Smart Checklist”

Work with Smart Checklist permissions set up

When Work with Smart Checklist is enabled - then the following permissions need to be used to work with Smart Checklist:

• Set status of Smart Checklist Items - check/uncheck checklist items, and set statuses.

• Delete Smart Checklist Items - delete checklist items.
