Project Key Reuse Inquiry

Roxsanne
November 6, 2023

When you archive a project, can you reuse the project key? For example, if we have a project named 'Technical Operation 2023 Q4' with the key 'TO' and we archive it, can we then create 'Technical Operation 2024 Q1' with the same key 'TO'? Thanks.

Hi @Ethan Trewhitt - if you are a Jira-Administrator, the view should show you all the boards - how did you find out, that boards are missing? Is there something special with the missing board?

That's the $10,000 question. I don't know what's special about it, but I know there are at least two boards like this. One of my users sent me the links. What permissions would make it such that a normal user could see a board and the admin can't?

I can dive into the backend database, but I'd like to know what I'm looking for.

Here's my related question

Maybe there were deleted? Is anyone able to see them?

As far as I know, you can't hide a board from an administrator

Boards that use a private filter, not including the jira-adminstrator, will not be visible for admins.

If a user has the permissions to create filters and boards, they are able to create a private board and filter, that might not be found by any administrator for a long time.
