Want to delete duplicate comments added in Jira issue

[Amzad Khan]

Hi,

How can I delete the additional comments added in the Jira issue by Automation.

I have mistakenly run the automation rule multiple times for around 100 issues, now I want to delete the additional comment added in the issue.

How can I delete the two additional comments using automation in jira creating a new automation?

Hi @Amzad Khan 

There is an option when adding a comment, you need to check the option - only include issues something. I don't remember the exact word, to avoid duplicates. 

Now to delete the comments - use automation as well but I'm not sure whether it will delete the lastest one or is there any criteria to do. 

But have a look in automation.
