Stream Privacy

Control the visibility of your meeting streams to protect sensitive discussions and keep your workspace organized.

Overview

By default, all streams (not the Team Journals) are visible to users in your Jira instance in the Stream Overview. The Stream Privacy toggle allows you to hide streams from users who are not participants, ensuring that:

  • Sensitive team discussions remain confidential

  • Non-participants have a cleaner stream list

  • Stream names and participant lists are not visible to outsiders

Enabling Stream Privacy

  1. Navigate to your stream's Settings

  2. Go to General > Meeting Settings

  3. Enable the Hide stream from non-participants toggle

  4. Save your changes

Who Can See Private Streams

When Stream Privacy is enabled, only the following users can see the stream:

Role

Can See Private Stream

Scrum Master

Yes

Coverer

Yes

Active Participants

Yes

Other Jira NASA Users

No

Users who are not part of the stream will not see it in their stream list or stream overview.

Use Cases

Sensitive Management Discussions

Hide leadership or management meeting streams from the general team to maintain confidentiality.

Team-Specific Streams

Keep team streams visible only to team members to reduce clutter for others.

Project Confidentiality

Protect streams for confidential projects until they can be announced publicly.

Important Notes

  • Stream administrators remain visible: Users with Jira administrator access may still see stream metadata through admin interfaces.

  • Participants can still be added: You can add new participants to private streams; they will be able to see the stream once added.

  • Stream deletion: Deleting a private stream follows the same process as deleting a regular stream.
