How to set reminders for individual tasks in Jira

Question

Hi All,

I started using Jira a week ago. I use Any Do for my personal tasks, but need to use Jira for work since that is the tool for task management in my organization. One of the basic features of to do apps in Android is that they allow you to set reminders to do a task at a particular time. Similarly, for tasks in Jira, I explored the Jira Web UI but couldn't find a field with similar features. Does Jira not have the ability to remind users of tasks by sending notifications via Chrome?

Hello, Saishankar!

Thank you for your question.

Please, take a look at Reminder for Jira from Teamlead. With our application you will be able to set reminders to perform a task at a certain time. Be sure that you will never miss an important client meeting or work presentation again.

Have a nice day!

Hello, I have the same need as Saishankar. Has anything changed since this was last discussed? I would find it very useful to have a "due date" for each individual task field that triggers a notification once the task expires.

Hi, I'd use labels to categorize those tickets that I want to notify on. If you want to create a custom field of date type  that you can use in your JQL query for the filter subscription, it sounds like a good idea to me.
