Share edit rights for filters and dashboards
We’ve added new permissions to filters and dashboards, allowing you to choose who can edit or view them. What’s more, you can now share filters and dashboards not only with projects, groups, and roles, like it was before, but also with single users. You can see some examples and screenshots in the Release notes. Below you can also find some changes to REST APIs.
REST API changes
When improving the filters, we’ve modified some of the existing APIs, mostly adding new fields. We haven’t made any changes to the APIs related to dashboards. Check out the Preparing for Jira 7.12 docs for more information on these changes.
