jira issue comment delete

  • Usage: jira issue comment delete KEY COMMENT_ID [flags]

Delete one comment by ID from an issue. Use it after comment list when a comment should be removed rather than edited.

--dry-run previews the deletion and never contacts Jira. Live deletes require --force in headless, agent, or --no-input mode; an interactive terminal is prompted when --force is omitted.

Safety

--dry-run

Preview without calling Jira

--force

Confirm destructive delete under --no-input / non-TTY

Output fields

With --output json, the response envelope's data object carries these fields. Run jira agent schema for the full machine-readable schema.

Field Type Description
comment_id string
deleted boolean
dry_run boolean
issue.id string
issue.key string
issue.self string
