Hide a project
A 'hidden' project will still be visible to people with admin permissions; regular users won't be able to search, view or modify any of the project's issues.
You can't edit project permissions or roles on the Free plan for Jira Software or Jira Work Management, and you can't configure issue-level security on any Free plan (including Jira Service Management). Find out more about how project permissions work in Free plans. To take advantage of Jira's powerful project permission management features, upgrade your plan.
- Create a new permission scheme, and leave all of the permissions empty:
- Select
> Issues. - Click Permission Schemes > Add Permission Scheme.
- Select
- Associate the new permission scheme with the project that you wish to hide (see the section Associating a Permission Scheme with a Project ):
- Select the relevant project.
