Notes:
- Projects, the all-new projects experience, is now available. For more information about Projects, see "About Projects" and for information about migrating your classic project, see "Migrating from projects (classic)."
- You can only create a new classic project board for an organization or user that already has at least one classic project board. You cannot create new classic projects for repositories. If you're unable to create a classic project board, create a project instead.
Warnings:
- You can change a team's permission level if the team has direct access to a classic project. If the team's access to the classic project is inherited from a parent team, you must change the parent team's access to the classic project.
- If you add or remove classic project access for a parent team, each of that parent's child teams will also receive or lose access to the classic project. For more information, see "About teams."
Giving a team access to a classic project
You can give an entire team the same permission level to a classic project.
Note: If a person has multiple avenues of access to an organization classic project (individually, through a team, or as an organization member), the highest classic project permission level overrides lower permission levels. For example, if an organization owner has given a team read permissions to a classic project, and a classic project admin gives one of the team members admin permissions to that board as an individual collaborator, that person would have admin permissions to the classic project. For more information see, "Project (classic) permissions for an organization."
