WHY JIRA PROJECT ADMINISTRATION?
Keep project configuration aligned with delivery.
A team changes its working process, but the backlog, release view and permissions still reflect last year’s setup. The project administrator must make the configuration fit the team’s delivery needs.
Learning Jira project administration helps you connect local requirements with boards, workflows and reporting. You can diagnose a project problem, make appropriate changes and recognize when shared configuration needs a Jira administrator’s involvement.
Managing Jira Projects for Cloud gives project administrators an assessment target. It recognizes knowledge of configuring and supporting team work, complementing the practical evidence you build by maintaining a useful project environment.
Translate a team requirement into configuration
Identify the required behavior and relevant setting before proposing changes that affect how the team uses its project.
Resolve local problems with appropriate authority
Recognize project-level adjustments and shared settings that need coordination with a Jira administrator before a change is made.
Keep release information useful for planning
Keep versions, scope and work items connected so stakeholders can understand what the team expects to deliver.
Explain unexpected board and reporting behavior
Trace filters, statuses and configuration to distinguish a misleading view from a problem with the underlying delivery work.
EXAM & PRACTICE
Prepare for ACP-620.
The questions cover the retained ACP-620 project-administration scope, including configuration, boards and release tracking. They help you decide which action fits a team requirement and which shared dependencies should be considered first.
Atlassian plans to retire ACP-620 in January 2027 and update ACP-120 with selected content. Use this bank for its stated scope, then consult the official transition guidance when choosing an exam or planning further study.

What you’ll practice
Coverage includes project details, roles, components, versions, workflows, boards, backlogs, releases and troubleshooting. The scenarios focus on translating a team requirement into a configuration decision with clear responsibilities and understood effects.
Is this the right fit?
For Jira project administrators, delivery leads, consultants, and ACP-620 candidates with practical familiarity with Jira. This is not a first-user introduction or a claim that project administrators control every global setting. Use it alongside current official learning and relevant hands-on experience, rather than as a substitute for either.
A sample of the reasoning
A team wants its board to show only its project while preserving future sprint planning. The underlying workflow is shared with other teams. Which change best fits the requirement?
Choose an option to reveal the reasoning.
Answer and distractor analysis
Best answer: A. A addresses the board's population without unnecessarily changing lifecycle behavior or discarding planning. The other options affect shared configuration or existing work that the requirement does not ask to change. The key is locating the cause: a view-scope problem should not automatically become a cross-project workflow intervention.
