Notifications without watching

[Julie Peuten]

I created a few pages other people are working on. Im not working on or watching these pages, I didn't click the favorisation button or anything else. Either way..Im getting a lot of system notifications. No emails but for every change on a page i created i get a notification... help! Does anyone knows this problem?

Hi @Julie Peuten Welcome to the Atlassian Community! By default, Confluence will assign you as a watcher of any page or blog post that you create or edit. This behavior is called 'autowatch'. You can turn autowatch on or off, and set other notification options, in the email settings section of your user profile. See Edit Your User Settings.

Hi @Kishan Sharma thanks for your answer. Yes i know about autowatch and turned it off. The pages are not in my watchlist or anywhere else where it could cause these notifications. That is what drives me crazy :D

Can understand, we can't do much about those unwanted notifications, I have recently discussed about similar case on this thread If you are a standard/premium plan user, I would suggest raising a support ticket to Atlassian to see if there's way we can disable notifications from pages where you are the author and no longer want to receive notifications about it on cloud.
