Introduction

Agile Hive offers a range of Jira global and project permissions, allowing Jira Administrators to grant specific users or groups access to sensitive app functionality.

This page provides an overview of the permission model in Agile Hive, along with detailed descriptions of each individual permission.

Permission Overview

The table below offers an overview of all permissions available in Agile Hive, along with the default Jira user roles. All permissions listed are assigned to a single logged-in user or group of logged-in users. Please note that if a user or group hold multiple permissions, they are cumulative. Project-based permissions apply only to the specific project they are assigned to.
