Karl Wright commented on CONNECTORS-731:
----------------------------------------

Maciej,
It may well be that we need to write a Jira plugin in order to fully support 
security for this repository.  Even if the viewissue API call returned the list 
of users, the list is potentially large, as discussed before.

Obviously this would be a major undertaking which will require someone with 
expertise in Jira, and with a Jira instance on hand to develop against.

If there is such a plugin built, it will need two methods:

(1) Return a minimal set of users/groups who can see an issue, and
(2) For a user, return the set of groups that they belong to.

> The Jira connector currently allows forced acls only.  Jira, though, has a 
> security model we should implement.  This involves indexing access tokens, 
> and providing an authority connector.
