Project is gone

[Smartfeedz]

I have a board in Jira that contained a number of issues.

I changed something in the permissions and now it looks like the project the board is linked to is not there anymore. I also do not see the project in the project list.

When checking the filter I get an error that project=<xyz> is not existing.

How can I fix this? Is this a permission related thing or is there something else corrupt/wrong? How can I fix this?

Correct answer was from Nic above:

That means you can get to the project via admin

Although you might not have any right to see it at all, that's a user setting. Admins can always get to the admin screens in projects, even if they can't normally see the project. Go to Admin -> Projects -> List of projects. (Not just "projects" on the top bar - that's the user side).

Thank you so much.  I've never had that happen before and I freaked for a second.   I always go through the projects bar, so it didn't occur to me to go in a different way!!!

You need to get an administrator to check the permission scheme associated with the project to verify you have browse permission. It can be directly, through a group, or through a project role.

Unfortunatly I am the administrator :-(

If it's still not listed, you may have deleted it!

That's it, thx! I can see it in the list of projects.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

Excellent. From there, you'll want to look at the permission scheme (issue security schemes will hide issues, potentially all of them in the project, but not the whole project)

[Smartfeedz]

Yes, I fixed permissions. Thx!

[Alex Perez]

Maybe you changed the permission scheme by revoking yourself the "browse permission", or you changed the issue security scheme ..?

[Smartfeedz]

I do not think so but how can I solve whatever is the cause?
