Hi, we were wondering if we can initially set default grants for custom jira project permissions using **jiraProjectPermissions** module ([https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/modules/project-permission/](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/modules/project-permission/)) when first added to Jira project permissions?

Maybe similar to **defaultGrants** for global permission ([https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/modules/global-permission/](https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/modules/global-permission/)) ?

Thanks.

Hi @StevenPila  
I’ve reached out to the Jira Permissions team to see if I can get an answer for you on this.  
Cheers

Hey,

I’ve been in touch with the Jira Permissions team and confirmed that at this time you cannot set default values for project permissions. I can see you’ve created a public feature request for this functionality at [[ACJIRA-2663] - Ecosystem Jira](https://ecosystem.atlassian.net/browse/ACJIRA-2663) which is the best way to request this functionality be added.

Thanks again,  
Mel
