How can I delete unused/faulty automation rules?

[Endre Kallai]

Hi there,

I have created a few automation rules in Jira and some of them don't work or are duplicates of another. I have spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out how I can delete unused automation rules but I could not figure it out at all.

Could someone help me with this?

Thank you,

Endre

Assuming they are global rules, go to Jira Settings > System > Automation rules. Search for the rule/s you would like to remove.

Next to the enable/disable slider, a link with 3 ... will pop up when you hover over them with your mouse. From the menu, select Remove:

The same goes for project rules, btw.

Oh, yeah. Thank you. For some reason the 'Remove' option didn't pop up when I was playin around with it a few days back... Is that even possible?? Nevertheless, thank you for your help. Issue's been solved.

hint:  when you access Manage Rules it is like below - no "Remove" option

 

Once accessing via setting as stated above - IT IS showing :)

Hi @Endre Kallai 

I cannot see an easy way to see which rules have not been run, only the ones which have.  I added a suggestion to add this feature:

Best regards,
