Roles and access rights in Yandex Tracker

Yandex Tracker is one of the services that can be connected to the Yandex 360 organization. The organization administrator who connected Tracker also becomes the Tracker administrator.

Access rights to individual elements and features of the service can be configured for users and user groups in Tracker.

When working with Yandex Tracker API, application requests are executed on behalf of the Tracker user. To perform certain actions through the API, the user executing the request must have the appropriate rights in the Tracker.

Global Tracker Access Level

A user's access level applies to the entire Tracker structure. This access level determines which actions the user can perform, such as creating and editing tasks and changing Tracker settings.

Tracker administrators and Yandex 360 for Business organizations can configure access for users or user groups. For more information, see the How to configure access to Yandex Tracker section.

Administrator

The administrator has access to all elements of the Tracker structure. By default, the user who created the Yandex 360 organization or connected Tracker to it is appointed as the Tracker administrator.

To assign other employees as administrators, use the Yandex 360 service.

Actions available to the administrator:
