Jira Issue security schemes API is one of 132 APIs that [Jira](https://apis.io/providers/jira/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Issue Security Schemes. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, API documentation, authentication docs, and an API reference.

This resource represents issue security schemes. Use it to get an issue security scheme or a list of issue security schemes. Issue security schemes control which users or groups of users can view an issue. When an issue security scheme is associated with a project, its security levels can be applied to issues in that project. Sub-tasks also inherit the security level of their parent issue.
