How do I display bugs in the links? Currently, only stories that are linked to each other appear.

[Razin Rangara]

Here is my JQl 

project = TEST AND issuetype = Story AND parent in (TEST-101, TEST-102, TEST-103) order by created DESC

TEST101,102,103 are Epics

It shows as below result, only story/features that are linked to each other appears under "Links" columns, How can I also show bugs that are linked to story/features

For example, Test1100 is a story/feature from one of the epic and under Links column it shows that it is linked to story/feature Test1101 and Test1102 but not the bugs which are also linked to Test1100

Hi William,

as allways with email notifications your main entry point is your notification scheme. You can define all actions that are used to send emails and also to whom they are sent. You should think about the following setup:

• using groups for those people mentioned by you and naming the groups General Manager, Project Manager, Developer
• reducing the amount of emails for all users and only notify project manager and developer more often (by sending emails to said groups)
• creating custom events that are fired trhough the workflow and used for sending emails to specific persons...

I know, this is kind of a general suggestion but that is at least hwo I would approach this.

Hope this helps kind of. Cheers, David

Hey David, thanks for your answer!

I've been looking in this scheme. What I really need is the ability to have a "General Manage Notification Scheme", and an "Everyone Else" one. Otherwise I have to edit every single line item of the notification scheme to add in this logic. Is that really what I will have to do? Is it even possible to add this logic in that way?

Say I use that approach is it possible to add an "Email the General Manager but only when they are the Asignee" type?

Sorry to say this, but in JIRA there is one (notification) scheme attached to one project. So basically yes, that's the way to do this.

Unfortunately notificatins are based on events, rather than on conditions. SO you can say "email when issue is created" and only notify the assignee but not the whole group. Further grouping of conditions is not possible.

What you also could do is to create notification-specific project roles, say like "new issue reciever" who recieves emails whenever a new issue is created. This would give the project lead more flexibility and controll over notifications.

OK, thanks for the info.

I think I'll do something like what you suggest. Maybe I'll setup the notifications to be by default a small set of notifications that *everyone* (even the General Manager) wants, basic things like "someone commented on your issue", and then add a group of people who are notification-hungry, and just send them everything.
