Email notifications for when issue links are added
Edited
Normally when a user edits an issue, the watchers are notified. However, I've come to realize this doesn't work for linked issues - if someone links issue A to issue B, I don't get a notification for either issue, even if I'm a watcher on both of them.
Jira support suggested I create an automation that does this. I'm getting stuck on figuring out how to show what new links were added using smart values. I can access the entire list of issue links using {{issueLinks}}, but I just want the new issues that were linked.
I tried using the {{fieldChange}} smart values that are listed on this support page, but none of them seem to work for me. (That section of the page also has some typos, so I'm not sure how much to trust it):
Does anyone know how I might get just the issue links that were added, not all of the issue links?
I'm also hoping to set up a similar automation for when issue links are deleted.

Hi @Jackie Scanlon ,
Guess this could even be solved in a much simpler way using the destination issue smart value.
This will only refer to the "linking" event and takes only the source and destination issue into account, so the rule can directly refer to the needed issue.
