Hi,

I'm new to Jira and I have a seemingly simple question.

When I add a user within the settings of a specific project, the other projects are also available to the user. Why does this happen? I didn't do any extra configuration, I just subscribed to Jira, created a project and added the users.

It all comes down to permissions. Likely, users that you create are going into a default user group/role and that default group/role has permissions to all the other projects. Or it could be that your projects are open to anyone logged in. In summary what you need to do is go into one or more of the projects where you do not want a user to have access to and assess the permission scheme. You find this under project settings, permissions.

Good afternoon,

Exactly the group in which the user was allowing access to all projects.
Now I managed to configure, thanks for the help!
