Adding Item Tracking projects

Post by JeffM » Thu Apr 07, 2011 11:31 am

Is there a permission that we can assign to allow non-admins to create new Item Tracking projects? We would like to be able to delegate the responsibility of creating projects to specific people, but we do not want them to be admins.

Thanks,

Jeff

We currently don't have a separate setting to allow people to create work item tracking projects. Once a project is created, the admin can assign a user admin rights to manage that project, but the ability to create projects belongs solely to the global admin.

Is it possible to create projects using the API? We have already automated other unrelated tasks when it comes time to start a new project, we could probably add another step to create the work item project using the API with admin credentials.

We just want to avoid having situations where our developers need to use different vault credentials depending on what they are trying to do.

Thanks,

Jeff

I'm checking into this further, but I don't think there is a method for adding a new work item project. I will post back if I find something.

I verified there isn't a method for that. I can put in a feature request for that functionality if you would like.

The ideal feature would be a separate permission for creating the projects, but allowing us to create projects using the API would also work. Thanks.

Could you add another vote for me, please? I made this same request a couple years ago.
