How do I add myself as a watcher to all Stories and Tasks in specific Epic ?  I want to be able to see all work done in a specific epic:

 

One way i came up with :

1. Create a filter

parent = PMO-1305 and status NOT IN (DONE) ORDER BY priority

2. Bulk change to add myself as a watcher

Hello @Michael Green 

If you have permission to make Bulk Changes, then you can create a filter to retrieve all the child items of a specific Epic and use the Bulk Change feature to make yourself a Watcher.

JQL: 
parent = {key for the Epic}
