Unlike most other schemes, such as workflow, Jira allows you to delete notification schemes even when they are being used by projects. However, Jira does prompt you with a warning when you attempt to delete a notification scheme that is in use.
Perform the following steps to delete a notification scheme:
- Browse to the Notification Schemes page
- Click on the Delete link for the notification scheme you wish to remove
- Click on the Delete button to remove the notification scheme
Once you have deleted a notification scheme, the projects that were previously using the scheme will have no notification schemes, so you will have to reapply schemes individually. When you delete a notification scheme, you remove all the notifications you set up in the scheme.
