How to allow usage of secured work logs? (Data Center only)

As a Jira administrator, you can prevent secured work log usage. On the configuration level, there is a work logs tab. This tab contains the following options:

• Allow public work log only

• Allow secured work log usage

You can switch between options and adjust configuration according to your business needs. If you switch from “Allow secured work logs usage“ to “Allow public work logs only“, new teams can be created only with the public work log option. Existing teams, which are using secured work logs visibility options will not be affected. Their work logs will not be published.

How can I disable the option to add work logs outside of any team?

By default, it is allowed to add work logs outside of any team. The checkbox “Allow to log time outside of any team“ is marked. If you want to restrict it and if you are sure, that all employees, who should track time are assigned to at least one team with a Team Member role or any other custom role with “Work on issues” permissions, you can disable this option.

To prevent logging time outside of any team, please unselect the checkbox “Allow to log time outside of any team“.
