Issues keep disappearing

Florian Vrede

Hey,

we dont know whats going on, but issues keep disappearing over time randomly, but in bulk.

Today it happened again, a bunch, like 20-30 just vanished from the board. But if you go to "issues" you can always find them. Some days they are even vanished in this section. It just happens randomly.

And no, we dont have any Filters activated.

Can anyone help us??

Thank you in advance!!

Hello @Florian Vrede

I can suggest you to check this things to investigate the issue:

Check if the issues are being moved to a different project or board: It's possible that the issues are being moved to a different project or board accidentally. Check if the missing issues are appearing in a different project or board than the one you expect them to be in.
Check if the issues are being deleted: It's possible that the missing issues are being deleted accidentally. Check if the missing issues are appearing in the Jira recycle bin or trash folder.
Check if the issues are being archived: It's possible that the missing issues are being archived. Check if the missing issues are appearing in the archived issues section.
Check the Jira audit log: Check the Jira audit log to see if there are any records of the missing issues being moved, deleted, or archived. You can access the audit log by going to Administration > System > Audit Log.
Check for any automation rules or scripts: Check if there are any automation rules or scripts that might be affecting the issues. For example, there could be a script that is automatically deleting or moving issues that meet certain criteria.
Check if there are any user permission issues: Check if there are any permission issues that might be preventing certain users from seeing the missing issues.

If none of the above solutions work, I recommended to reach out to Atlassian support for further assistance. They can help you investigate the issue and identify the root cause of the problem.

Hope it helps!

Hello @Florian Vrede

Welcome to the Atlassian community!

What is the status of the issues that are disappearing? Are they only disappearing from the right-most column of the board?

Are you working with a Software project, a Service project, or a Work Management project? If you have navigation options across the top of the screen like below, then it is a Work Management project.

If it is a Work Management project and issues are "disappearing" only from the right-most column, or only from columns that have green statuses mapped to them, then be advised that green/Done issues will be automatically hidden on the board when they have been in that status for 14 or more days.

If you are instead working with a Software or Service project, is the board a Kanban board or a Scrum board? Also is the project Team Managed or Company Managed? The latter will be displayed at the bottom of the navigation panel on the left. Done issues (right most column) on Kanban boards for Software and Service projects may also be automatically hidden based on how long they have been in that status.

If Done issues are being hidden automatically the issues should still be appearing when you select the Issues navigation option for all types of projects. If they were deleted, archived, or moved to another project then they would not appear in the Issues navigation option.

Hey, apparently this was the problem! I now created a new column and moved all the issues there. Is there a way to disable the function to automatically hide green issues? Thank you!
