Can I see my own messages in JIRA and Confluence

Question

I would have thought it would be possible to see the messages that we attach to 'shares' off pages / issuees in Confluence / JIRA. Is there a way to do this?

I realize, that this might be against the concept of both JIRA and Confluence but I find it annoying that I sometimes enter slightly specific messages that are meant for a targeted audience that only the recipients can see and not myself. Sometimes I remember too late that I omitted somebody in the first share and have to recreate the message.

Hi Arne,

No problem :)  Please feel free to accept my answer if you feel that it's, well, acceptable

Thanks for the heads up Joe. I've added my vote and a comment. My interest covers both Confluence and JIRA.

Hi Arne,

As far as I know, this isn't currently possible in JIRA. However, I did manage to find an improvement request for this which you can find here -JRA-32125, which has not been implemented yet.

For now, I would recommend that you :

* Watch the request, so that you would receive any and all updates
* Vote for it, so that it would gain more attention
* Comment, and give your opinion on it

Please note that all feature and improvement requests are handled according to the Implementation of New Features Policy
