App Administration

Jira Administrators can select users to be an app administrator. This role should be granted mindfully since it will allow any appointed user to:

1. Edit the shares from any whiteboard in which they’re at least a Viewer, regardless of whether they’re an admin for the whiteboard or not.

2. Change contributors' roles at any time, including their own.

3. Edit or remove any whiteboard they are allowed to see.

• If an administrator is not in at least the Viewer role, that board will be hidden from them.

• You can remove any group or user from the administrator role on this page by click on the X button.
