Add users to your space

As a space admin, you can add groups or individuals to various roles in your space. Roles are space-specific, so adding a group or individual user will only affect your space. You can also use the same process to remove access from groups or users. It's important to note that you can only add existing groups and users, and you need to be a Jira admin to create the groups or users.

Add a user to a space 

In this step, you'll add one of your users (we’ll call Emma) to the Administrators role, so she can help manage your space. You must be a space administrator to perform these steps.

This describes the process of adding users to company-managed spaces. If you're in a team-managed space and don't see the People option in space settings, check out Add people to team-managed spaces.

If you're not already in your space, select the Spaces menu and locate your space.

1. Next to the name of your space in the sidebar, select More actions (•••), then Space settings.

2. Select People, then Add people.

3. Select Add people.

4. Search for Emma.
   You can add multiple people and groups, and delete those you have accidentally added in this dialog.

5. Select the Administrators role and select Add.

Emma will now have administrator access to your space. You can use the same process to add users or groups to the Administrators role. If you'd like to give users restricted access to your space (so they can only view work items they're assigned to, for example), you can ask your administrator to create a new space role.
