Configure Services: settings, permissions, and references

Once your services are created, you can configure who can manage them, define service object types and tiers, and map how services reference each other — so when something breaks, your team knows exactly what's affected.

This article covers:

• Permissions — how service permissions work and where to set them

• Service object types and attributes — the mandatory fields every service needs

• References — how services reference each other, and how to view those connections in the service graph

How permissions work

Services in Jira Service Management are powered by schemas in Atlassian Assets. Because of this, service permissions are governed by the permissions set on those Assets schemas — not by JSM project roles.

Permissions can be set at three levels:

• Global — applies across all schemas

• Per schema — applies to all service object types within Software Registry and Business Portfolio

• Per service object type — applies to a specific type of service within a schema

To configure permissions, go to the Assets schema settings for your service schemas. You'll need permission to manage the schema itself to change its permission settings.

Service attributes

A service is an object in an Assets schema, and like any Assets object it has a set of attributes you fill in. Some attributes are included out of the box, and three are mandatory for every service:

• 名前

• Tier — the criticality level of the service (for example, Tier 1 for the most critical)

• Service object type — see below

You can create additional custom attributes to capture any other information your team needs.

Out-of-the-box service object types

Services are organised into two pre-provisioned Assets schemas, each with its own set of object types:

You can also create custom object types in either schema. The two schemas are pre-configured so you can start adding services right away — no setup is required.

Manage services from Assets

Because services are Assets objects, you can also create and edit them directly from the Assets schema view — not only from Operations → Services in Jira Service Management. Either entry point updates the same record.

Change a service's owner team

1. From the JSM navigation, go to Operations and select Services.

2. Open the service.

3. In the service details, find the Owner Team field.

4. Select the field and search for the new team.

5. 変更を保存します。

Add references between services

References describe how services relate to each other — for example, your customer portal references your authentication service, which references your database. Mapping these connections means that when an incident affects one service, responders can see what's upstream and downstream from the incident view.

Two reference attributes are included out of the box, matching the two pre-provisioned schemas:

• Software Registry references — link to objects in the Software Registry schema (Applications, Capabilities, Software Services, Deployed Services, or any custom object types you've added to that schema)

• Business Portfolio references — link to objects in the Business Portfolio schema (Business Services, or any custom object types you've added)

Each attribute uses Depends on as the default reference type. You can create additional custom reference types to suit your team's needs. All reference types are functionally equivalent — there's no special behaviour (such as auto-reverse-linking or deletion blocking) based on the type you choose.

参照を追加する

1. Go to Operations → Services and open the service you want to add a reference to.

2. Find the Software Registry references or Business Portfolio references attribute.

3. You can add multiple service objects per attribute (up to 100)

4. Select the attribute and search for the service to reference.

5. 変更を保存します。

Remove a reference

1. Open the service whose reference you want to remove.

2. Find the relevant reference attribute.

3. Select the reference, then remove it.

4. 変更を保存します。

View the service graph

The service graph shows a network diagram of a service and its references — so you can trace dependencies and understand impact during an incident.

The graph is available per service. You can open it two ways:

• From Jira Service Management:

  • Go to Operations → Services

  • Select a service - this opens up a panel from the right with details about the service

  • Look for the graph view option in the panel

• From Assets: open the service object in your Assets schema and select the graph view option there.

Filter the service graph

You can filter the graph using these options:
