How to check who send invite

[Ihor Krapivin]

Hello Atlassian Support, 

I would like to ask for clarification regarding an unexpected situation with user access. 

A few months ago, as the administrator of our company’s Jira instance, I deleted a user from the system. However, starting from last week, this user was able to join our Jira instance using an invitation that appears to have been sent earlier. 

From what I can see, the user accepted the invitation and regained access despite having been previously removed. 

I would like to understand how this could happen and under what circumstances an invitation remains valid for such a long period of time. 

Specifically, I would appreciate clarification on the following points: 

• How long do Jira/Atlassian invitations remain valid?

• Is it possible that an invitation sent before the user was deleted can still be used later?

• Are there any settings or logs that allow administrators to track who sent the invitation and when?

• What would be the best way to prevent similar situations in the future? 

Thank you in advance for your assistance. 

Kind regards,

Ihor
