How can I archive Projects in Cloud hosted JIRA Service Desk?

[Tina_Allen]

Trying to find a simple way to archive closed/completed projects so they do not show on the project list and clutter it up. I also need to be able to pull stats from them and have them show on reports and the ability to move them back to active if needed.

We have decided not to do this method as we are all Admins and it doesn't hide it from our list. A simple button, link or another Queue would help and keep all closed projects off the list and cleaner presentation.

Hello,

Have a look at this KB:

yep that is what I do as well. Note, even though there isn't a corresponding Cloud document it works there too.

So I completed this process of Hiding the Project for only one user to be able to view/manage Hidden projects. But when I log in I still see the project listed but when I click into the project it gives me the permission error. Is there a way to hide it from the List?

I guess you are a Jira admin. Non Jira admin users should not see the project

Yes, yes I am! Thanks! I will have another user take a look.
