Is it possible to add a watcher or request participant using the build in JIRA service desk automation tool? There's a CC field, but that's not the same as watcher or request participant.
Yes... you can see the automation solution below the scriptrunner solution here:

Wait... it is possible I am misunderstanding your question.. if you are trying to add the participant on create. That is not currently possible. There is a feature request to allow this here:
https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JSDSERVER-1511
What I'm trying to automate: When an issue is created, if a particular field is set to a specific option, then Joe Smith user will be added as a request participant or watcher.I'm using the edit issue action and trying to edit the request participant field and/or watcher field: This should be a built in option
Yeah.. .that is not currently available. I wanted to do soemthing similar and ended up using the sriptrunner solution.
I agree it should be built in. Make sure you vote on that ticket, they do take our voices seriously.
I believe this is also a feature request for this: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRASERVER-43158?_ga=2.177442278.2106392666.1555332986-604395977.1547221284
I tried to recreate @Rodney Sawyer's suggestion, but i don't have "Request participants" or "Watcher" in the selection.
We are using Service Desk version 8.3.3
Does anyone have any idea what that's all about?
