Quickstart Guide

This is a short and quick startup guide for using Recycle Bin for Jira.

Permissions for Recycle Bin:

Recycle Issues: Allowing users to move issues into the recycle bin.

Restore recycled Issues: Allowing users to view the recycle bin and Restore recycled Issues from there.

Use Recycle bin: Allowing users to move issues into the recycle bin, view the recycle bin and Restore recycled Issues from the recycle bin.

Recycle & Restore Permissions are split up in case admins want to assign different groups to the different actions, for example only allowing one group to recycle issues but another to view and Restore recycled Issues from the recycle bin.
