      When logged in as a user without View -> Create permissions,
      when on the "My Views" page, the "New View" link becomes visible.

      Since the user doesn't have permissions to create views on the top level (global views):

      • I would expect this link to point to "/user/[username]/my-views/newView" instead of "/newView".
      • Or for it to be hidden.

          Mark Waite added a comment -

          The newView URL seems to block a menu click from creating a new view on a folder. Steps I took included:

          1. Create a new folder and navigate into the folder
          2. Click the "New view" link on the left side of the page, confirm that it opens "/newView" instead of opening "/folder/newView"

          I've created views on folders before, but the same behavior is seen on Jenkins 2.235.5 and on Jenkins 2.249.1. I did not research any further into the past to determine when that behavior changed.

          The workaround is to append "/newView" to the end of the folder URL. Views will then be created in the folder.
