Is it possible to be notified if any of my team members was assigned to some tasks?

I have a few people on my team and need to be notified once they are assigned to any tasks by other people at the company. Please let me know if there is such feature in Jira.

Hello @Andrii Sidorov 

There are a couple of ways this could be handled. 

If you don't need immediate notification then you can create a Save Filter that retrieves all issues assigned to your team members. Then set up a Subscription to that saved filter to send you the information on a suitable frequency.

If you do need immediate notification then you would need to set up a an Automation Rule to be triggered when an issue is Assigned and send you an email if the Assignee is one of your team members. However, if this involved multiple project you need to either create this rule in each project or create a multiple-project rule. The number of free multiple-project rule executions is limited. Also note that the rule would be triggered for every assignment of every issue in the specified projects. It is only after the rule has been triggered that it can evaluate to whom the issue was assigned. So there may be many, many executions of the rule that result in no email sent because the Assignee is not a member of your team.
