Next - Gen Project > Delete issue from backlog

[Mary Tresa Gabriel]

How should I delete a bug / task from backlog if I am using a next - gen project?

@Mary Tresa Gabriel , I would strongly advise against deleting issues. Rather I would suggest you simply mark them as Done with a resolution of won’t do or something similar. Once you delete them they cannot be recovered.

This sounds great, but you cannot cannot currently change the resolution in next-gen projects:

It seems like next-gen projects are very limiting

[Jack Brickey]

Yes that is correct.

Hi @Mary Tresa Gabriel ,

Please check with your Next-gen Project admin to see if you have Issue delete permission.
