Teams Field in Jira Projects (Notifications and Groups?)

[AS]

With the recent implementation of Teams Field in Jira... A couple Things..

1. How/Where do we control the notifications for when the team is called in the field?
   1. Teams Field or Teams Group doesn't seem to be in the role permissions or notification schemes.
   2. If I add team 'X' to the field, should all team 'X' members be notified.
      1. So far in testing, this is not the case.
2. Is the Teams Field connected/streamlined with the Jira Groups, Yet?
   1. This was marketed months ago that the two functionalities would be married.

Hi @AS 

Answers below...

1. There's no notifications for adding a Team to the field at this stage. You could use Automation though to send a custom notification either via email or as a comment? 
2. Not at this point, but there are feature requests you can vote for - check out JRACLOUD-80976 or JRACLOUD-80847

In terms of other ways to notify teams, check out this help page:

Share content with a team, or @mention a team to notify them

Once you have created your team, you can share content with team members, or @mention the team on pages or issues to notify everyone in the team.

To share with a team, click the Share button in the top navigation of Confluence, or the share icon on a Jira issue and enter the team’s name. Members of the team will be notified by email or through their in-app notifications.

You can also @mention your team's name on a page or issue to notify everyone in the team. When using autocomplete to find the team name, the suggestions may include teams whose profile description contains the word or phrase entered.
