Archiving Projects / Boards and Filters

Jeff Murray_nn3zi1

Hello -

We are in the process of upgrading to Jira premium. We will be archiving old projects. My question, what happens with the boards and filters that are linked with a project? Do they get archived as well? What happens to them?

Also, if there is some good documentation on the subject, please advise.

Thanks,

Jeff

Archiving the project will also archive boards that are located within that project. Filters do not live within a project so they will not be archived, but if you access the filter it will return an error message saying that the project does not exist.

Archived projects in Jira Premium don't affect linked boards and filters. They remain operational and accessible, displaying the archived project's data. For detailed information, consult Atlassian's official documentation on archiving projects in Jira.

It does affect boards located within the project, and here is an example:

In the Charley project there are two boards

After the project has been archived non of these boards are visible if you search for them and if you access the direct link to them this is what you will see

Hi Mikael -

Thanks for the responds. Once the projects are archived, can we delete the filters?

Thanks,

Jeff

Yes, shared filters can be removed, just go to Settings > System > Filters and you can search for the filter from there and remove it.

Just to be sure...For example, we archive project ABC along with the board. We then delete the filter associated. When we view ABC, we will still see all the issues tied to that project? And if we unarchived, we would need to create a new filter since we deleted the original one?

Thanks,

Jeff
