Hi Everyone,
Thank you for your comments and support for this feature and patience as we prioritise all the needs and requests for Jira Software. The voice for this feature has been somewhat muted as demand has been spread across a number of different JAC tickets.
As many of you have mentioned Project (and Issue) Archiving has been shipped to Jira Data Centre.
I am happy to say we are bringing this into Jira Software and Service Desk Cloud (Classic and Next-gen) initially as part of our new Premium offering. We will start with Project Archiving and then Issue Archiving in a subsequent milestone.
This was announced recently as part of our new public roadmap and our What’s New in Jira webinar. Both of these resources showcase what’s new and what's planned for Jira Software.
The existing permissions based option will continue to exist (nothing changes there).
Whilst I understand there may be some frustration that this is a Premium feature, it is part of a broader package of Premium Admin features which we have a team allocated to now. In the case of Archiving like many things on the surface this feature seems simple but there are actually many touch points across the product that need to be addressed to ensure it works correctly which has contributed to this not being tackled until now.
We are also investigating a ‘project recycle bin’ to stop accidental deletions which we would be making available in Standard edition.
We will reach soon out to ask for your feedback on additional use cases around Auditing and compliance for Archived Projects and issues and as part of that work we may define requirements that will ship to Standard and Premium.
Thanks,
Ben Jackson & Ritesh Ranjan
