Sadly the issue requesting this was closed (not accepted).

This is unforgivable in this modern era of cloud applications. Losing potentially irreplaceable and critical information due to a miss-click is exactly the sort of thing Jira should strive to avoid! This is forcing people to create information outside of Jira, rather than just making Jira their first stop.

There is no acceptable excuse to not have a standard autosave feature to save people from losing data. Google has had it for many years in many apps. People expect it and are shocked when they lose their issue reports.

Hello @Srinath D

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

There is no saving of drafts of Jira issues. If you reloaded the page before clicking the Create Issue button then the information is gone.

Here is a change request you can vote for to add such a feature:
