This guide will walk you through the process of removing an issue from the JIRA project and development system. Jira serves as a software utilized for project development and issue tracking. To remove an issue in Jira, you need to have authorization from an administrator. Keep in mind that deleting an issue in Jira is irreversible - once deleted, it cannot be restored.
Steps
Launch Jira. Look for the app icon with three blue arrows pointing towards the upper-right corner. Typically, the app opens in your computer's default browser.
Navigate to the Issues ▾ tab. This can be found as the third option in the menu bar at the top of the screen.
Click on the Search for Issues option. This can be found as the third selection from the top within the 'Issues' tab.
Look for the specific issue you wish to delete. Utilize the available dropdown menus to narrow down your search by project, type, status, or assignee. Alternatively, you can directly search for the issue by name using the search bar. As you refine your search, the list of issues will dynamically update to match your criteria.
Choose the issue you intend to remove. Once you've conducted your search, the desired issue should appear in the list of search results. Click on the issue to select it, which will display additional details on the right-hand side.
Access More options. Located adjacent to the 'Assign' button, clicking this button will reveal a dropdown menu with further actions.
Select Delete. This option is situated at the bottom of the dropdown menu. Upon selection, a confirmation pop-up will appear, prompting you to confirm the deletion of the issue from the server. If you do not see the 'Delete' option, it's likely due to insufficient permissions. In such cases, contact your administrator to grant the necessary permissions or handle the deletion.
Select Delete to confirm your action. By clicking this option, you are permanently removing the issue, and this action cannot be reversed.
- Deleted issues cannot be recovered.
