Hi @amit_lodhi

Do the following for the permission:

* Go to your project's project permission page.
* Click Edit permission
* Add the user to the Delete Issue permission.

As for the command, do note that it is expected you get a token first from: https://id.atlassian.com/manage/api-tokens and you are then expected to run a curl command as you were shown which points to your instance.

Hi @Ismael Jimoh ,

Thanks for the reply. I found the api link helpful.

But can you share how and what permissions I have to provide for deleting an issue. Is there any documentation for that?

Hi @amit_lodhi

To delete users via rest api, look at: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/?utm_source=%2Fcloud%2Fjira%2Fplatform%2Frest%2F&utm_medium=302#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueIdOrKey-delete

With regards permission, the users parsed must have the delete permission already in the project. You cannot parse the permission retroactively while you are deleting the issue.
