Can you watch attachments?

Question

I know I can watch a page.  That notifies me when someone makes an edit to a page.  however if I have documents on that page, it does not notify me when someone edits a document.

Can I set up a "watch" on specific documents, so I can be notified when someone edits it or adds a version?

Hi @JB Bentz - welcome to the community.

it depends on what Confluence you are running - if you are on server version normally there are notifications for attachment changes.

See this article here how to disable those notifications - which means in reverse that you should get notifications for changes (if not disabled by admin).

Please note only works for Server!

Like you mentioned confluence sends out a notification only when the contents of the page are edited not when the attachments of the page are edited.
