Privacy

An issue has two visibility levels:

LevelWho can see it
PublicEveryone in the project
PrivateOnly the Creator, the Assignee, and the Distribution list

The Issue module does not use a "Restricted" level.

  2. Click the privacy control on the social card — a one-time confirmation dialog appears:

Make-private confirmation dialog

  1. Click Make Private to confirm (or Cancel to keep it public).

:::warning One-way action Switching from Public to Private from the detail panel is one-way: to make the issue public again, the access-level workflow must be used. The right to switch to private belongs to the Creator group, the Assignee group, or an administrator. :::

Per-action privacy​

Each workflow action dialog (except Cancel) has its own Private toggle in the header, controlling the visibility of that specific action's record.

Privacy in filters​

The detailed filter has a visibility level condition: all / public only / include private — see Filter & Search.
