task observer

[Ivan Andrieiev]

Who becomes a task observer by default?

Hi @Ivan Andrieiev 

I assume you mean a Watcher. First, the Reporter will be made a watcher - but you can turn that off in the Settings > System > Default User Preferences

@John Funk  @Fabio Racobaldo _Catworkx_  Hi

There is no list of when you receive notifications, for example, if you were simply tagged, but you did not comment on the task, will you be a Watcher?

[John Funk]

You have to add yourself as a watcher or be the creator of the issue.

@John Funk 

It says, notifications according to global settings. Where can I see the global settings?

[John Funk]

Go to Settings > System

Hi @Ivan Andrieiev ,

each user can setup in his preferences if he want to be automatic watcher about created issues.

• Watch your issues – With this enabled, you become a watcher of any issue that you create or comment on. This means you'll get an email when someone updates or comments on the issue.

Hope this helps,

Fabio
