Does the Previous Project Key field still exist?

Elly Hyam-Hobden

Hi There,

 

I am wanting to re-use a project key in a new project. 

 

I have found in this article:  

https://support.atlassian.com/jira-work-management/docs/edit-a-projects-details/

 

Reference to being able to do this, by changing the project key, and then deleting the previous project key : 

In the Previous project keys field, delete the relevant project key.

 

When I navigate to the project settings, I am unable to see this field. 

 

I have a specific use case for doing this, related to the recent change around maximum field entries in Jira Issues.
