Access Management for Issue History
Why do you need access management? This option allows you to restrict/grant access to the add-on features for certain user groups.
Access management is available for the following options:
Access to the Main dashboard of reports.
Access to deleted issues
Access to the management system itself for Jira user groups.
How to activate the access restriction option?
Open the add-on main page.
Select "Permissions" in the configuration menu (If you have administrator access) to manage the accesses.
On the left side, you will see a list of your Jira user groups that have access to certain sections of the add-on.
Note that administrative groups (administrators, jira-administrators, site-admins, system-administrators) have all rights by default, so they cannot be disabled.
You can change access for three different sections: report, deleted issues, permissions. By clicking on the checkbox near column’s header, you grant or restrict permissions for all groups. Or you can do it separately for each user group.
Report section
In the report section, you grant/restrict permissions to see the main issue history report.
If users from a group that does not have permission go to the add-on main page, they will see a message saying that they do not have access to the reports.
Deleted Issues section
This section allows you to control the activation and display of data for deleted issues.
The Deleted issues option is available in the table header on the main page or in the menu.
If users from a group that does not have access to use the Delete Issues option, they can not activate the toggle and view deleted tasks on the main page.
Permissions section
Here you can manage who has access to the Access Control section at the Jira group level.
A user from a group that has the Access menu restrictions, will not be able to access this section.
If you do not have access to a section, contact the administrator for help.
