Change access settings for your portal-only customers

Portal-only customer access (formerly known as global customer permissions) allows site admins to control:

• how accounts will be created for portal-only customers to send requests and access portals on the site

• whether or not portal-only customers need to be logged in to access the portals on the site

A portal-only customer is typically someone that you:

• view strictly as a external client, for example, people outside your company

• don't foresee collaborating within Jira Service Management or other Atlassian products
