In Jira Notification Schemes, what does the event "Issue Updated" cover? Which items and which events are under this heading?

[AlaA]

Hello Anne,

"Issue Updated" covers all issues which have had their details changed that includes Editting an issue, changing the summary, deleting a comment, attaching files to the issue, linking an issue.

I hope that helps.

Does the Issue Updated event include status changes?

[Bharadwaj Jannu]

I don't think status changes will trigger ISSUE_UPDATED event. Instead workflow event is generated.

[Udo Brand]

Status change will only be due to transitioning an issue. In each transition is defined what event is triggered. So you need to check your workflow transitions. If you have in every transition "fire Issue Updated event" then the answer is yes, otherwise no.

FYI: at the time of this writing, emails are NOT generated when an issue is linked to another issue. https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-14618

Is the event fired when watchers were changed?

[Waldemar Mueller]

Does it fire when reporters change?

Does it fire when a new Request Participant is added?  (e.g. in JIRA Service Desk)

[Scott Kimber]

I just did some testing today.  When request participants are added or removed, the Issue Updated notification does NOT fire.

[Mark Crocker]

Does it include Re-assigning an issue as well?

[Andreas Denzler]

Does it fire when labels are given or changed?

[Antti Päivinen]

Does it fire if issue type is changed?

[Alex Lorsung]

is there a way to associate the issue updated event to specific issue types within an issue key?

e.g.

Key is called Help Desk (or HD)

issue types include: infrastructure, risk, softwaredev

I want to create events that use issue updated for each separate issue type within the key HD.

Is this possible?

[Alex Lorsung]

Nevermind, solved my own problem...

In my condition logic i just added "&& issue.issueType == 'Risk' " after the priority evaluation.
