Jira Issue/Filter macro without permission to the Jira Project

[Maximilian Herbert]

Hello there,

so I want to do the following:

I have a Jira Project.

On Confluence I have the Jira Issue/Filter macro to display a bunch of the Jira tickets filtered by some JQL statements.

Now there are people that dont have access to the Jira Project but access to Confluence. I want that everyone having access to Confluence can see the Tickets in the Macro (but cant click on them and edit them ofc.) Is this somehow possible? 
Is there any Macro which generates a "view" on the Jira issues that doesnt depend on the jira project permissions?

Thanks in advance
Max

Hi @Maximilian Herbert 

The Jira Issues Macro in Confluence rely on the application link between Jira and Confluence.

The application link impersonates the Confluence user when making requests to Jira.
This ensures permissions configured in Jira are still followed.

The use case you mentioned would require making changes to the project permissions in Jira to allow anonymous access .

Another option would be building your own integration, maybe based on Jira REST APIs being called by a user that has access to the Jira project.

Kind regards,

Hi  @Thiago Masutti 
Thank you for the response! So there is no way to generate a "view" which doesnt require the permissions on the jira project itsself :(

I will try to reconfigure the jira project so anonymous access is possible.
Thank you for the help

Kind regards,
Max
