How to delete a next-gen project?

[Tom Bergström]

Hey everyone,

We are using JIRA cloud in our company and even though I am site admin (and admin in everywhere possible) it seems to be completely impossible for me to delete a next-gen project. I have even set myself as an admin for the project in question.

What really confuses me is that point 2 is nowhere to be seen for me under project settings.

From your project's sidebar, select Project Settings -> Details

2. Go to the top right corner to locate the ...  as shown in the image below

@mythili I am having the same issue. Please see my screenshot as this is not an option for me though I am the admin for my project.
