Zones for Multitenancy
- Nikola ILO (Deactivated)
Problem Statement
You have one or more JIRA projects, which you want to your customers to have access too. It is important that your customers don't have access to each others issues. A customer may have different JIRA users and all of the customers JIRA users should be able to work with the same issues. Every Issue created by a customer user is automatically shared with all users of the customer.
Solution
Each of your Customers/Tenants is a Zone. For every of your JIRA projects you can specify if you want a customer to have access to it or not.
Customers can only see issues that they created or that were set to their zone.
You and your co workers are able to create issues and set the zone to any customer.
