JIRA Service Desk doesn't send certain e-mail notifications

[Benjamin Richards]

Hi All,

I've been a bit stumped recently with notifications not working - we're using JSD and I want all watchers to be able to receive an email when a status is changed and mainly when a comment has been added without the need of using an @ to add someone. The setup is below, and I've checked the notifications helper and everything is checked and lighting up green.. any ideas?

Issue Created (System)

• All Watchers (Delete)
• Reporter (Delete)
• Current Assignee (Delete)

Outgoing email is enabled..

Thanks in advance

Ben

@Benjamin Richards, couple questions for you -

1. have you checked w/ the Notification Helper to verify that it believes a user will get notified for a specific use case, e.g. comment added?
2. has this previously worked and recently stopped or never worked?

[Benjamin Richards]

1. Yes have checked the notification helper and its all green..

2. I think it has but starting to doubt myself.. so I'm going to go with no.

 Even when added as a "Participant" notifications are not being sent, the only time is when you @ a person and or set an automation to email Service desk users..

Is there a conflict maybe with internal staff being added to the organisation of a ticket that has been raised?

Hi Ben,

It's important to note that Service Desk Customers generally only receive Service Desk Notifications which are configured separately in the "Customer Notifications" section of project settings.

Your screen shot shows only Notifications which will only apply to users who have at a minimum browse permissions to the service desk.    Is that your intention?

Hi Susan,

Here is another screenshot - So internal users (staff) are also part of the customer organization.. so it is really odd.
