      Atlassian Update - 16 July 2020 

      Hi everyone,

      Today we’re excited to announce that project archiving is generally available as part of Jira Software Premium. You can read about it in detail at https://support.atlassian.com/jira-cloud-administration/docs/archive-a-project/

      With project archiving, you don’t have to delete old or inactive projects – simply archive them and all of their underlying issues. By archiving older projects, you reduce clutter in Jira and always have a record of older work in case you need it. You also don’t have to worry about team members accessing out-of-date work or adding Jira issues to the wrong place.

      To try out project archiving start a free Jira Software Premium trial today (go to billing → manage subscriptions → change plans). Or you can learn more about Jira Software Premium here.

      Additionally, if you’re worried about accidentally deleting projects, we also recently rolled out a new trash feature (available in your Jira site right now) where you can recover any project you’ve deleted for up to 60 days after it’s been deleted.

      Thanks,
      Ritesh Ranjan
      Product Manager, JIRA Platform

       

      I would like to be able to archive projects in Jira Cloud, which is currently not available.

      See How to hide (or archive) a project for a workaround.

            Completely agree, now I have to manually make backups on our ftp and manually search for attachments so they are not lost. Basic feature, nothing Premium about that.

            This option for TRASH looks like restoring the deleted files from Recycle bin. This is not an archival option.

            I agree that this is a feature that should be native to Jira Cloud Standard. It's something simple and extremely relevant.

            I hope Atlassian will come back and rethink this possibility.

            This should be part of the standard Jira Cloud service. Being able to archive a project is a basic function of project management. This is ridiculous.

            Why is this basic feature ties to 'Premium' plan? This should be part of Jira standard plan.

            change the title of this to: Ability to archive projects in Jira Cloud for Premium Plan

            It is way, way beyond a "little" absurd. I find it dumbfounding.
