Indeed, on OnDemand a custom plugin won't be a solution, at least not before Plugins 3 are introduced. There's a feature request for introducing this post function in Jira (JRA-5493), but it's not scheduled for development at the moment.

So the link I added above will not work with ondemand?

How do i trigger custom events for notifications? that would solve my issue, as I would like to have roles recieve notifications on specific issues. I was trying to go the Watcher route, but looks like I can't at this time.

You can try this free plugin that I think that's what you're looking for:

Hope it helps,
