Manage Watchers in Create Issue

David Kubyk September 23, 2012

Hi,

Is it possible to manage/add to the Watchers list when creating an issue? I would find it very helpful to assign the ticket to a user and then add Watchers in the create issue step.

Thanks

David

So... right now...this is not possible without plugin?

You can use the Post transition functions to add a watcher as part of the workflow.  (Just make sure you put the field update after the ticket creation). It doesn't provide the versatility that I would have liked, but it solves my present problem.

Works great: you can add watchers on create, or change them on edit. (And if you want to change them before Commenting, do edit but don't change any fields)
