Add, assign, and delete project categories
As a Jira administrator, you can create project categories so your team can view work across related projects in one place. Your team can use categories in advanced search, filters, reports, and more. Note that project categories cannot be used to create project hierarchies (such as parent projects).

Choose the Jira icon > Settings () > Projects.

Below the list of existing project categories, enter a name and description.
Click Add.

How to delete a project category
