2.2 App Permissions

To use all the features of Scan It, users must have the Jira or Confluence Administration privileges.

We assume that all users that have the Jira or Confluence Administration privilege as App Admins.

We recommend that create ‘scan-it-admins’ user group, grant the Jira or Confluence Administration privilege to this group, and add users to this group.

Create ‘scan-it-admins’ group
Grant the Jira Administration privileges

Most administrators of Jira have the Jira or Confluence Administration privileges, like

  • administrators

  • site-admins

  • jira-adminstrators

  • jira-admins-SITE_NAME

  • confluence-admins-SITE_NAME

Users who are not App Admins are treated as regular users. Regular users cannot use the features of Scan It.
