Smart Checklist emulates global Jira permissions by default as follows:
Users with "Browse Projects" only 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 "Edit Issue" permission will be able to modify checklists (mark items as done/undone; edit items content, add/delete items, etc.), import templates and save checklist as a template.
Users with "Administer Projects" permissions are able to create/modify templates and set them as default. You can grant proper permissions via Project Settings → People → Add People
You can enable Custom Permissions to View and Work with Smart Checklist. 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 same permissions as Project Admin.
