Important Note: This configuration impacts the visibility of invitees' emails within Google Calendar events.

By default, only Jira users with personal email visibility account settings set to Anyone can be invited to Google Calendar events. You can check your personal email visibility account settings by clicking the cog icon from the Jira top bar, and then Atlassian account settings.

However, Jira admins can allow inviting any Jira user from the Global settings of Issue events.

Configure user invitation options

  1. Navigate to Apps > Manage apps > Issue Events: Google Calendar Integration for Jira > Configure. The Global settings page opens.

  2. Within the settings, locate the option for User invitation configuration.

  3. Make your selection.

    • Only Jira users with "Anyone" email settings – Maintains current behavior. If you select this option and there is no one with the Anyone setting, you won’t see any users you can invite when you click the Add guests dropdown.

    • All Jira users – Allows inviting any Jira user. Please note that the emails of the invited users will be visible to people with access to the selected calendars.

  4. Click Save.
