How to see archive feature

[srujana_garneni]

planning to archive inactive/old jira projects but i don't see archive option under settings selected project sand under Actions i don't see any option to select. 

My Jira instance i see is 

• Atlassian Jira Project Management Software (v10.3.5#10030005-sha1:190c783:i-035920e16254036ca)

Go to Settings > Spaces ([BASEURL]/jira/settings/projects/manage)

this will lead you to Manage Spaces view. In the last, right-most column of this view you will see 'Space URL' column name.

Click on those 3 dots to make the action menu appear and select 'Archive'

Hi @srujana_garneni , 

You can directly go to the projects -> check for the project -> click on the 3 dots, there you can see the archive option, or else you can refer this document

Archiving a project | Administering Jira applications Data Center 11.3 | Atlassian Documentation https://share.google/8TtlafZfQJ2033bFa

Hi @srujana_garneni , I think it may be because of this reason,

If the Archive option is missing, it's typically not because the feature is absent but due to insufficient permissions, May I know do you have the jira admin permission.

FYI : Only jira admins can archive the projects

[srujana_garneni]

understood that's what i thought as when i see under settings i see only 2 options Jira administration and Projects. I am only able to select projects not even Jira Admin option.

FYI: But i am admin for the Jira board of that project not the project lead. 

Thank you!
