I have bulk edit privileges on a project; the person I need to add as a watcher to dozens of issues in that project does not. Neither of us has permission to create automated rules.
In Bulk Edit, I can only assign myself as a watcher - which is dumb, since I created most of them in the first place. Jira should have a way for those with Bulk Edit permission to be able to add watchers other than just themselves.
I understand how to create the JQL to generate the list of issues that need to be modified. I simply cannot find a way to add the other person other than manually editing one-by-one. The situation is exacerbated by the possibility of needing to add more than one person in the future.
Installing add-ins is not an option for us either.
