How can I remove myself from an Organization

birdnerd

I created a Jira Organization for a school project so that I could easily collaborate with my team and the owner of the project. I have now graduated, and want to use Jira for my own side project, but I am stuck as Admin of the Org I created for that project. The owner of the project is continuing to work on it and as such will still be using the Jira boards and org for that, but I can't seem to remove myself from the Org. Is there a way I can unlink my account entirely from that Org?

Hello Kwolfe20,

Thank you for reaching out to Atlassian Community!

Checking the details of your site, I can see that there are two administrators on the organization, and in order to remove you, the other admin must access the org and do that.

Please, ask Kap to go to admin.atlassian.com, select the Organization > Settings > Administrators and they will be able to remove you.

Please, give it a try and let us know if you face any issue.

Regards,
Angélica

Thanks! He said he had to change me to a regular user (instead of admin) first but that worked!

This is kind of nuts.

My account is now stuck within an organization I don't work for anymore and the admins are unresponsive. My account is enslaved by this organization, my requests for freedom have been ignored.

Agree with Patrick, this is bad user experience. I should be able to leave an organization on my own.

🤣 the title of the post says "Solved"

it is not solved at all from my perspective

> TODO: User can leave an organization voluntarily. Abolish this slavery
in 2023 users are still slaves from old workspace

Hi, would like to raise this issue again. I need to leave an organisation that I have no access to anymore (company defunct).

I am an EU citizen and according to GDPR mandates, I would like to remove my personal details from this organisation.

Please advise how I should proceed?

Bernardo Euler

2025 Update. It's not possible yet. Jira must allow any user to quit an organization, it's a shame.

End of 2025. please, allow users to break the slavery shackles. PLEASE

Past mid 2026... the only thing we have to lose is our fucking chains.
Jira's UX is so restarted it makes me quote the communist manifesto.
