Role management of users on JazzHub projects

A colleague setup a JazzHub project for us to use with a customer. He would like to give me additional privileges to allow me to admin the project as well, however, even as the project creator, he doesn't seem to have permission to modify/save the project page.  Please advise.

Hi Tim,

At this point, a JazzHub project can only have one admin user.  I'll add a note to one of our work items tracking allowing users to edit roles that you have requested this feature.

Your colleague should have permission to edit the project from the project's page in the web interface.  From there, he can edit the project's name, photo, description, and timeline.  Editing project info from Eclipse is disabled.

So in particular, only the creator of the JazzHub project area is allowed to invite others to join the project area?

Yes, only the creator can invite others to join the project.

Regarding what you say a creator can do from the project page, will the creator be able to modify project member roles (different than adding another administrator)?

Project creators cannot currently modify member roles either.  This is something we are tracking and considering implementing in the future.

how does the creator change the current iteration if they can not save the project?

We have a job that runs nightly to update the current iteration.  You can force the current iteration to be updated if you save the timeline while on your project's page.

Great!  That worked.  Thank you!
