If an Administrator has given you the Request New Projects permission, then you can submit a request to have a new project created and can follow the procedure below to see the status of any of your outstanding requests.
View outstanding project requests
To view the status of an outstanding project request, click your avatar in the top right corner of any Jira screen and choose My Project Requests to view the My Requests page.
From the My Requests page:
- Click View to view the details of any request, including any comments that a project approver may have provided. If the request has been completed, you will see a note at the top of the screen:
- If the request has been completed, scroll to the end of the screen to see if the project approver created the project with a different name or project key than you had originally requested.
- If the request has not yet been completed, you can add a comment to the project approver by filling in the Comments box at the top of the screen and clicking Add comment.
