Hello,

Kindly read the following KB

I followed the instructions from linked page and have removed all the labels I want to get rid of, but they still appear as an option when I am creating a new task. Should I just wait for reindexing or is there something more I should do?

You can do it using Bulk Edit. I have created a short youtube video that goes through this process, hope it helps:

The label might be tagged in some other JIRA tasks which are part of a different project. It has to be updated in all the JIRA tasks across all the projects for the label to disappear in the field.

I am facing a similar issue. Hopefully, someone has a simpler approach..

Same as with @Tomas Botek here. I have removed a label from all issues accross all the workspace and Jira still suggests it to me.

@Anatoly Spektor thanks for the instructions, but I'm trying to remove a specificlabel completely in Jira, so that it isn't shown in the label list at all. I removed that label from each issue, but it still keeps on occuring in the Labels dropdown list ... Is this possible to remove completely from jira?
