Self-mention

[Lucifer]

Hello! Help me please. How can I make it so that if I mention myself via "@" in my task, where I am both the author and the performer, I receive notifications by email? Now, I do not receive such notifications. If in the personal settings of Jira I enable the checkbox so that I receive notifications if I make changes to the task myself, then I receive notifications if I mention myself. But then I also receive notifications if I edit the task, for example, the description menu. How can I make it so that if I mention myself via "@" in my task, where I am both the author and the performer, I receive notifications by email?

Hi Lucifer,

Hope you are doing well.

Please go to you Avatar( right top corner). Click on it. Select "Notification" and then check from "Send me emails for issue activity" the tab with "You make changes to issues".

[Lucifer]

yes, I did that. But then I get notifications if I just edited, for example, the task description. And I need it to come only if I mentioned myself via "@" in the comments.

Hi Luc - Welcome to the Atlassian Community!

Why would you need that? You should be using Jira for all of your communication on the issue.

I need this so that I can see this mention in my email. I rely on email quite heavily in my work. And I want to see mentions in tasks, even if it is made by me in my task, in my email.

I saw that this could be done at my previous job, in version Jira 8.20.7, but in the current version I can't find how to set it up.

Well, that doesn't make a lot of sense me, but to each it's own. Regardless, it's all or nothing. You either get the email for everything you do, or nothing.
