User B is added to watchers when User A creates an issue

Leandro Gomes_o2gqeo

Hello Team! I've facing an very strange situation on 2 users of my organization.

I have one specific user that adds another user to watcher list of every single issue this user reports. When user A creates an issue, user B is added as watcher of that issue and i can't figure out why this is happening.

I don't have any automation for watchers in my projects and i'm pretty sure that user A doesn't uses watcher functions. And the fact of watchers function doesn't show up in any logs doesn't help me figure out whats happening.

Can you guys please have me an light in this problems?

Thanks!

Hi Leandro,

The first places I would check would be the Create transition in the Workflow for that project to see if there is a post-function adding the watcher.

Next would be to look at the History of the issue to see if the field is getting updated after it is created. If not, then it is definitely being populated during the create of the issue.
