Rights Management
In YouTrack, we have a developer role that has the Read Project Basic right. This prevents the user from making changes to the fields, such as Stage. Now, in an Agile board, the Field Stage is imported from the project and used for the columns. Anyone can make changes here, and this error appears:
This set of values is used in projects and is the default for fields. To reorder, add, or rename values, edit the set for all projects or make an independent copy for the projects on this board
We do not want to have an independent copy of this field (so that possible changes are immediately active in all projects).
Is there another way to protect the Stage field from possible changes (workflows, apps..)?

Hi Rbuerkle,
The error you mentioned indicates that the Stage field is already protected - no user without the “Update Project” permission can edit it. So, can you please describe in more detail what you'd like to prohibit? If you don't want developers to make changes to the board itself, you can remove them from the “Can edit board settings” field.
