delete only own issues

Question

Hi,

Is there way in JIRA cloud if i can enable permission to assign user to delete only issues created by self and not by others ?

You can use "reporter" in the "delete issue" permission in the permission scheme.

Two points though

* If someone can change the reporter, they can take control of the issue and delete it
* Delete means it.  The issue is gone and you can't get it back.  Delete permission should be very limited or, in most cases, simply not granted at all.
