Note

Note that removing a group in Jira is an irreversible action.

Removing a group in Jira causes the members of that group to lose access to settings and resources that were specific to that group such as:

  • Projects

  • Issues

  • Permissions

  • Notifications

This can significantly affect the workflow and productivity of team members, as well as the communication and the work of team members who were not part of that group but were dependent on the permissions, notifications, or other settings specific to that group.

Before proceeding in removing a group, double check the group that you want to remove, and ensure that you understand the consequences of this action.
It is also recommended to have a backup of your data to avoid any data loss.
