Team hi, I entered Jira and created a board or company not sure with a name Archinnovs. I made a mistake in the name. How can I correct it or delete it?
Hi @Dureid
Is it a Project or a Board? These two items have names, but how to change them differs. There's also the chance if you did create the Project the Board will also need to be changed separately.

Project Type
The process differs also between the two Project Types - Company-managed and Team-managed.
To tell what Project Type you have, look in the bottom left-hand corner and you'll see...
With one of the two Project Types listed!
Company-managed Project
To change the Project Name...
To change a Board's Name...
Team-managed Project
To change both the Project/Board Name, it's the same instructions as above for "Project Name" - i.e:
Note: If you intend to change the "Project Key" also you can do this from the Details screen mentioned above - but you should consider the impact this has on your wider instance.
You can see the impacts on this help page, under the title "Change your project's key"
Delete Project
If you wish to delete a Project:
Projects are kept in the Trash for 60 days - along with their Issues, Components, etc. During this time, you cannot reuse the Name/Key for another Project.
You can permanently delete the Project earlier than the 60 days though if you're a Jira Admin:
For more information on trash/deletion, see this help page
