Associating project permissions

Integrations and/or repositories can be associated with one or more Jira projects to restrict which users can view development information. All newly-connected repositories or integrations are associated with all Jira projects by default.

This feature is displayed on the following locations:

• REPOSITORY Manage repositories page ➜ Actions ➜ Edit repository ➜ Feature settings.
• INTEGRATION Manage integration page ➜ Actions ➜ Edit integration ➜ Feature settings.

Restrict to projects  –  One or more projects can be mapped to this repository or integration to make Git Commits tabs available in the Issue pages of the associated projects. Disable Associate with all projects option to gain access to this field.

Associate with all projects  –  Enable this option to associate this repository or integration to all projects. Disable this option if you want to use the existing mapped projects from the Restrict to projects field. The default setting is enabled (checked).
