Confluence and JSM administrators

By default, your organization's Confluence/Jira Administrators have global administrator rights in Refined. Service Management (JSM) administrators can manage all sites and settings in your Refined instance.

Refined administrators

You can also give global full administrator rights to other users in your organization, by making them Refined Administrators. This can be beneficial if you want a designer to help out with the look and feel of several sites, for example.

Refined Administrators are still bound by Atlassian permissions. This means that they can only add and edit spaces or projects if they can view them in Confluence or JiraJSM.

In Jira Service Management (native JSM), JSM Agents can see to which Refined site a project is added. They can’t make any changes in Refined Sites unless they are 're a Refined Administrator administrator or Site Administratorsite administrator.

Excerpt
Note

If you suspend or remove a user in Atlassian, they’ll also lose the administrator rights they had in the Refined Sites app. It may take up to 12 minutes for these changes to take effect. During this time, the user can still make changes in the Refined Sites app if they have an active session where they’re logged in.

These users will still be displayed as administrators in Refined, even though they won’t have access anymore. You’ll need to manually remove the users.

Site administrator permissions

Site Administrators administrators can edit manage a specific Refined Site, including site settings and the layouts site. This includes editing the site settings, as well as landing pages of spaces and projects that they are allowed to view. Even if these layouts pages contain sections that the Site Administrator site administrator can’t view on the Refined site due to the section’s view permissions, they are still able to view and edit them in the Page Builder.

Site Administrator administrator permissions can be especially helpful when you work with teams that all have different specializations. For example:

  • A colleague from the Customer Success team can help you out with building your support site.

  • You can get an HR team member to join you in managing the intranet.
