How to prevent deletion of stories based on a given value of a custom field?

Question

Hello All,

How to prevent deletion of stories based on a given value of a custom field(single select)?

For Example:

If user creates or update an issue with the custom field value = no, it should prevent issue from deletion

Is it possible?

Thanks in Advance,

Manikanta

Hi @Bunty

To my knowledge there’s no way to prevent deletion of issues via the default delete function without customizing your JIRA.

The alternative to this would be writing your own Delete issue plugin and tie your conditions to it. You then remove all users from the delete permission from all projects you want your rules to apply to.
