Checklist & Templates Permissions

Smart Checklist emulates global Jira permissions by default as follows:

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

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

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

You can enable Custom Permissions to View and Work with Smart Checklist starting from Smart Checklist v6.4.1. See how to Set-up Custom Permissions.

Project Admin has all defined accesses in case he has "Browse Projects" permissions for custom permissions disabled and, in addition, "View Smart Checklist" for custom permissions enabled.

Site Admin has the same permissions as Project Admin.
