Setting up Assignee Notifications when Customers Comment

[Anita Duncan]

Hey there,

I am trying to configure Jira Service Desk to notify the Assignee by email when a Customer responds, ie an External Comment.  I have tried to do this using notifications and Automation rules, but no luck.

Does anyone out there know how to do this?

Regards

Anita

glad to hear you are good to go now! And welcome to the Community playground. It's a great place to be when you need help, want to help or need something to help you sleep. ;-)

Thanks everyone.  This works now.  I was having a blonde moment and wasn't looking at Notifications, only Customer Notifications and Automation.

Cheers

@Jack Brickey if it will let you move it as a discussion (we're still in beta and I know that was a bit buggy for a minute there) it might make sense!

@Monique vdB, I actually tried to move the thread to JSD but it doesn't allow me to change to a question from a discussion so just left it here. Is there a way or should I move as discussion or just leave?

And welcome!!

@Anita Duncan for future reference our Jira Service Desk collection is here and you can ask product-specific questions there to people worldwide, not just in Austin. Of course in Austin you have @Jack Brickey so you may not need anyone else. 😉

You should simply need to go to Project > Settings > Notifications and ensure that current assignee is on the comment
