Also, it supports easy collaboration throughout the team, thanks to the complex issue-tracking system.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>However, one thing you should be cautious of\u2026 It is the accidental or intentional deletion of important issues. Why? The loss of even a piece of project data can have devastating consequences and throw your team a few steps back\u2026 What measures should be taken to minimize or even eliminate the consequences of the Jira data deletion? Let&#8217;s talk about it in this article\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why should you back up your Jira data?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To start with, what about looking at the following scenario? Let&#8217;s say your team uses a backup script to protect Jira data, but unfortunately for you, the script overwrites your backed-up Jira data. Thus, if some of your issues are accidentally deleted and you haven&#8217;t noticed it on time before another backup, your data will be lost. So, you may need to recover deleted issues due to human errors, outages, and ransomware attacks are among the reasons for protecting your Jira issues and other Jira data to avoid data loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shared Responsibility Model<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Another reason is the Shared Responsibility. Let&#8217;s not forget \u2013 the user (or customer) is responsible for his account&#8217;s data within the <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/gitprotect.io\/blog\/atlassian-cloud-shared-responsibility-model-are-you-aware-of-your-duties\/\">Atlassian Cloud Security Shared Responsibility Model<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What about the provider&#8217;s duties? It is responsible for the security of its service and infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"atbs-responsive-video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Shared Responsibility Model in DevOps - what you need to know\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/OHh0yc1JZ3w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Compliance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>One more aspect, that\u2019s worth our attention is security compliance. If your organization is about to pass and comply with security protocols, like GDPR, <a href=\"https:\/\/gitprotect.io\/blog\/gitprotect-by-xopero-is-now-soc-2-type-ii-compliant\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SOC 2<\/a>, HIPAA, or <a href=\"https:\/\/gitprotect.io\/blog\/iso-27001-certification-gitprotects-by-xopero-software-iso-27001-audit-process-explained\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ISO 27001<\/a>, then backup and Disaster Recovery strategy is a necessary measure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are there any options to restore a deleted Jira issue?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Recovering a deleted Jira issue is <strong>generally not possible through Jira&#8217;s built-in functionality<\/strong>, as the issue and all its associated data, like comments and attachments, can be permanently removed. Atlassian supplies its users with manual exports and imports, but it doesn&#8217;t provide granular restore. It also has a complete backup on the infrastructure level, not supporting a single account backup. In both situations, in case of accidental deletion of an issue(s), you will not be able to restore it. Once deleted, the issue is gone forever. But does it have to be that way?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To cover this challenge with a single Jira issue restore, you can use a third-party solution, like a <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/gitprotect.io\/jira-backup.html\">backup and Disaster Recovery<\/a> app found on Atlassian Marketplace, that permits granular restore of only specified data. Hence, for example, you will be able to restore only the necessary issue with all its data, including configurations, comments, attachments, links, tasks, and sub-tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f4fafe\">For <strong>Jira Data Center or Server users, restoring from a database backup<\/strong> is an option. However, this action will revert the entire instance to the state of the backup, overwriting any changes made since the backup was created.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"atbs-responsive-video\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Jira Granular Restore to eliminate Oops-moment\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/B8Hb2_FQN94?start=110&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step-by-step guide on restoring Jira issues with GitProtect.io<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you start backing up your Jira environment with GitProtect backup and Disaster Recovery software and create your backup plan, you can easily restore only a single piece of your Jira data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, let&#8217;s look at an example, go through the Jira issues restoration steps, and recover our deleted Jira data:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, open your GitProtect.io interface and click <strong><em>DevOps<\/em><\/strong> on the left side of your screen.
