Adding customer doesn't send invite email

[Nick Savage]

Hi -

Trying to add our employees as customers to our IT Helpdesk project in JSM. I've added both an existing employee and a test account and neither received via this page and neither received an invite email. 

I don't prefer this, but instead this is happening:

1. send a support request from either account >
2. a confirmation email is returned from IT Helpdesk
3. click on "View request" in confirmation email
4. Prompted to login

 In addition I haven't found yet the right info yet that discerns between "adding people" from this page

And this page to add customers

 Thank you!

Check to ensure:

1. project settings- customer notifications has invited enabled
2. the request didn’t go into spam box

the first screen is used to manage what roles a user will have. For adding customers use the second screen.

Thanks @Jack Brickey - Yes customer notifications had invited enabled; no change. Nothing in spam or elsewhere; checked both test account and existing employee.

Are these customers currently users of Jira software possibly? You mentioned you added a test account was that test account new in your instance?

There are a number of posts on email notifications in the Community that you might search and the following might help - troubleshoot-email-notifications-in-jira-service-management
