Adding a project

It is easiest to create a project after the groups and schemes have been created.

Create Groups
  1. Log in as a user with the 'JIRA Administrators' global permission.
  2. Bring up the administration page by clicking either the 'Administration' link on the top bar or the title of the Administration box on the dashboard.
  3. Select 'Group Browser' from the 'Users, Groups & Roles' section of the 'Administration' menu.
  4. You will then see a page containing the 'Group Browser'.
  5. To create a group, enter the new group 'Name' in the 'Add Group' form in the 'Group Browser' and click the 'Add Group' button.

Best practices: Your group name should be XXXXXX-YYYYYYYYYY where XXXXXX is the Project Key that you will use when creating the project and YYYYYYYYYY is 'administrators', 'developers', and/or 'viewers'.
