It is possible to delete the requests and restore the reference number.

 I have created a new project and to verify that the flows and configurations work correctly I have created test requests, I would like to be able to delete and reset the reference number to be able to start using the project as new.

@Danilo Antonio Araujo Lopez -

Unfortunately, the issue number cannot be reset.  It is a backend index number that auto increment by 1 when issue is created.  So when an issue is deleted, the number will not be re-released again for the project.

Also you cannot re-direct the URL of the old ID to another ID - reference https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRACLOUD-34945

Having said the above, we are working with the Atlassian Team to address the ID issue as it is critical from a data backup and restore point of view.

Short answer is no, you cannot reset the issue key number, in order to do that you would have to create a new project.
