All of a sudden, story point field and points GONE

Question

Working on Company managed Jira.  I was working on some story adding and was able to insert Story Points as I always do.  I just went to create a story and I noticed the field was not available.  I then noticed they were gone for ALL of my stories across a few boards.   Any ideas?  Other projects within the company are all good.  Thanks

In fact, you don't have access. You should definitely contact the jira admin!

But no worries, your data shouldn't be deleted :)

I do not think I have access to any of those.  I am the Project Lead.  Is there anything I can check or do I have to contact the Jira admin?

Hi @Ari Cohen ,

1. Did you check on "Where is my field" and type in "Story Points"? What does it says?

2. Is 'Story point" associated to specific projects? If so, add your project to the context of the field

3. Even if a field a field is deleted from a screen Jira will still keep the historic. Did you add it again to the create/edit/view screen of you project?

4. Go to the audit log to understand what happened and to see who did the modification

Hope it helps!
