Question 1

The compliance team at Globex Corp needs to review all user accounts and group memberships across the Jira Cloud instance. However, security policies prohibit them from modifying any Jira configurations, creating projects, or altering workflows. Which TWO actions must you take to grant this access? (Select TWO)

Accepted Answer

Grant the 'Browse Users and Groups' global permission to the 'Compliance-Reviewers' group.

Accepted Answer

Create a new group called 'Compliance-Reviewers' and add the compliance team members to it.

Answer

Add the compliance team members to the 'Administrators' project role in all projects.

Answer

Grant the 'Jira Administrators' global permission to the compliance team.

Answer

Assign the compliance team to the 'Site Admin' role in the Atlassian Admin Hub.

Question 2

A marketing department wants to start using Jira Cloud. They request a new project where anyone in the company can view and create requests, but only the core marketing team members can transition or edit the issues. They explicitly ask for a setup that they can manage themselves without needing to submit IT tickets for every new team member. Which access configuration is the most appropriate?

Accepted Answer

Create a Team-managed project and set the Project Access to 'Limited'.

Answer

Create a Team-managed project and set the Project Access to 'Open'.

Answer

Create a Company-managed project and configure a complex Permission Scheme.

Answer

Create a Team-managed project and set the Project Access to 'Private'.

Question 3

You are auditing a company-managed project's permission scheme to ensure it scales efficiently as the organization grows from 50 to 500 employees. Currently, the 'Resolve Issues' permission is granted to the 'jira-software-users' group, and the 'Delete Issues' permission is granted to the 'engineering-leads' group. Why is this considered an administrative anti-pattern in Jira?

Accepted Answer

Using groups in permission schemes forces Jira Admins to create a unique permission scheme for every project to accommodate different teams.

Answer

The 'Delete Issues' permission can only be granted to the Project Lead or Jira Administrators.

Answer

Groups cannot be used in permission schemes; only project roles are supported.

Answer

Group memberships update asynchronously in Jira Cloud, causing delays in permission propagation.

Question 4

A legal team uses a company-managed project to track contract reviews. Some contracts are highly confidential. When a user creates a confidential issue, they populate a custom field called 'External Counsel' (a User Picker field) with the name of the external lawyer assisting them. The team wants to ensure that ONLY the Reporter, the Assignee, and the specific user named in the 'External Counsel' field can view the issue. How can this be achieved?

Accepted Answer

Create an Issue Security Scheme with a security level that grants access to Reporter, Assignee, and the 'External Counsel' custom field.

Answer

Update the project's Permission Scheme to restrict the 'Browse Projects' permission to Reporter, Assignee, and the 'External Counsel' custom field.

Answer

Use a workflow validator on the 'Create' transition to hide the issue from users not listed in the 'External Counsel' field.

Answer

This is not possible in Jira Cloud. Custom fields cannot be used to restrict issue visibility.

Question 5

True or False: In a company-managed project, a sub-task can be assigned a different, more restrictive Issue Security Level than its parent issue to hide specific sub-tasks from users who can otherwise view the parent.

Accepted Answer

False

Answer

True

Question 6

A user complains that they cannot see the 'Data Migration' project in their project directory, nor can they access any issues within it via direct links. You verify that the user has an active Jira Software license. What is the most likely cause of this issue?

Accepted Answer

The user is not in a group or project role mapped to the 'Browse Projects' permission in the project's permission scheme.

Answer

The 'Data Migration' project has a default issue security level applied that excludes the user.

Answer

The user is not assigned to the 'View All Issues' global permission.

Answer

The user has not been granted the 'Browse Users and Groups' global permission.
