Synchronisation

Scopes

Scopes for Connect apps enable an app to request a level of access to an Atlassian product. They are required when using Enhanced Search for Jira Cloud for the following:

  • read: access issues and filters

  • write: store metadata about issues for synchronising keywords

  • delete: remove metadata about issues or remove filters when they are removed from our UI

  • act as user: to run searches in the background as the filter owner

  • admin: so we can check project and issue permissions to highlight problems providing search functionality
