User Roles
User Roles
Each user in the Agile Toolbox for Jira has a role that defines their permissions within a planning poker room. The two main roles are Room Owner and Regular User.
Room Owner
The user who configures the room automatically becomes the Room Owner. This role has full control over the session and can perform the following actions:
- Change the room configuration.
- Remove the room and its configuration.
- Reveal cards and estimated points.
- Set the estimated points to the issue field in Jira.
- Reset the voting.
- Vote by choosing a card.
Regular User
A regular user is anyone who joins the room. Their primary role is to participate in the voting process. However, if the Room Owner is not present and has enabled the option in the room configuration, a regular user can take ownership of the room by clicking the “Take Control” button. After this action, they become the new Room Owner.
