Add the VERA Service Account to the VERA System Role

This step is required DEPENDING on how the VERA System Role was originally configured. The Jira Administrator may need to add the VERA service account to the VERA system role:

  1. For any existing projects that are converted to VERA, manually add the VERA service account to the VERA System role.
  2. For any newly created projects, the VERA service account will be added by default, and can be removed if VERA will not be enabled on that project. 

Alternatively, utilize this guide to ensure that the VERA service account was correctly added to the VERA system role for the Jira project. For more information on the VERA System Role, please refer to the Create the VERA System Role guide. Follow the steps below to add the VERA Service Account to the VERA System Role.
