Example project permission scheme

Permission Scheme

Permission helper Actions

Project permissions define who can access a project and what they can do (create and comment on issues, for example). Access to individual issues is defined in issue security.

This project is using the scheme: Default Permission Scheme. To change project permissions, use the Actions menu to choose a different scheme or modify the current scheme. Learn more

Note: Permission schemes may be used by multiple projects. Modifying a scheme will affect any project it's associated with.
