Keep Deleted Issues
When you delete issues in Jira – they are forever gone. You can’t define who has destroyed an issue and when. Storing deleted issues function will help you to hold accountable for every deleted record. That would be extremely helpful when preparing for controls and audits.
Storing deleted issues is started only after activating the option. You can’t get record for the issues deleted before the app was installed.
