Modifying permissions in the Web client

Permissions are assigned to individual roles at the project level or the team level in a project area, team area, or process template. You can modify the role's permissions for performing operations by using the Permissions tab of the project area or team area. You cannot modify permissions in the process template in the Admin Web UI.

Before you begin

You must be a member of either the JazzProjectAdmins group or the JazzAdmins group.
