Hello @LSL ,

Welcome to community :) 

Could you please check this article : https://support.atlassian.com/jira/kb/add-watchers-and-vote-buttons-are-greyed-out-in-team-managed-project-issues/ 

This has few reasons why the button is not available or greyed out.

Incase it doesnt solve the issues screenshots or error message would help here

Thank You,

Prachi

Hello @LSL 

Welcome to the Atlassian community.

What happens when you try? Do you get an error message?

Can you provide screen images of what you see?
