Hi, is there a way to prevent notifications (email) to go out whenever I make changes to a custom field?
The background for why I want this is: I output an Excel report of open issues each week and currently I have to overlay a personal comment manually each time.
I want to have a custom field with text where I can enter a short summary of what's going on with that particular issue and have that get outputted to the report as well.
The comment is public, I don't mind if others can change it. But I do mind that they get emails sent to them each time I make a change. They are supposed to get all these comment on the day when I present the report. Not getting the comments one and one by email as I work on them.
You need a custom workflow and a custom notification scheme.

Now when someone presses the "Update Weekly Status" workflow action a 'Generic' event (or whatever you chose) will be fired and as there are no notifications for that event type, no e-mail will be sent.
Warning: current due to bugs in REST API it is not yet possible to use a Global Transition to edit these fields.
Wow, that's a lot of work, especially the workflow customization. Is there any other alternative if you want to modify this custom field using a script, not from Jira UI ?
