How do I display the watchers feature in the right column?

Quincy Adam May 16, 2019

It's listed as "On" under "General Configurations" but it's not displaying.

I figured it out. It's under JIRA settings => Permission schemes => Default Permissions Scheme => Permissions => Voters & Watchers Permissions => Edit

I just chose for all logged in users, but that's where it's located. Thanks!

I guess what I'm saying is that it's not listed on the right column, so I cannot add a watcher.Screen Shot 2019-05-16 at 1.28.43 PM.png

sorry. i'm being an idiot. :-(

The watcher field in the new view is the eye icon in the top right of the screen

Not being an idiot. Thank you. This answered part of the question. So, how would I assign a watcher?

sorry was away from the Community for a bit. you should be able to do that from the eye. Here is what I see. if you do not then you don't have permissions to add watchers. if you are not the admin speak to them about adding you to the "Manage watchers" permission.

Hi there, I am the admin of the account. I purchased and created the account, but I do not see "+ Add Watchers". Where would I enable that?

What do you see when you click on the eye? What do the permissions look like in project > project settings > permissions , manage watchers?

it may be because it is empty, no one watching. check that and add a watcher and see.
