Hello,
I am the sole administrator of our Jira instance and have top level permissions. I have created a project with multiple boards and EPICS but cannot find a way delete the Epic.
I have followed the below information to a T and do not see the same options listed.
I found it. On the Backlog page with VERSIONS and EPICS displayed, on the EPICS frame, the list of epics is displayed. It's here that you click the drop arrow to the right of the epic name, click "View epic details" and when the new page displays, in the upper-right corner, click on the ellipses then click Delete..
