How to restrict table editing using workflow conditions

How to restrict table editing using workflow conditions

You can prevent users from editing table content in the issue view by using Jira’s built-in workflow property:

jira.permission.edit.denied

When this property is set on a workflow status, all fields, including STAGIL Tables, will be non-editable while the issue is in that status.

How to configure

  1. Go to: Jira SettingsIssuesWorkflows

  2. Edit the relevant workflow:

    • Click Edit next to the workflow used in your project.

  3. Select a status where you want to restrict editing → choose Properties.

  4. Add the following property:

  1. Click Add, then publish the workflow changes.

Result

  • Users will not be able to edit any field in the issue view while the issue is in the restricted status.

  • Even if not a custom field the app will also respect this rule and tables will appear in read-only mode.
