Event Issue Created and Watcher Role

[Jose M.]

The event "Issue Created" includes by default the notification "All Watchers", but who are the watchers at this stage? Is this related to a role "Project Watcher"? If so, how to set it up?

Hi @Jose M_,

Nowadays it's not possible natively to add watchers on cretate screen, you can find more information here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/jirakb/add-watchers-in-the-issue-creation-screen-315327528.html

The "All Watchers" is related to this issue field:

Cheers,

Hi Adrián,

thanks for your quick reply. I saw that page and the suggested solution. So are you confirming, that the out-of-the-box notification scheme does not work without that field.

The default notification is herewith not correct as confirmed by Atlassian: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-5493, because there is no "Project watcher" role.

Am I right?

Hi @Jose M_,

Yes, you are right there is no "Project watcher" role.

Cheers,

Adrián.
