Can you confirm if you put the post-function as last one?

Thanks , it's working ..

what variable should  i use for adding the group ?

[Vijay Khacharia]

I dont get it, do you want to add a group to the watchers list? It is not possible. From the code i see you trying to add a list of users as watchers. This should be fine. Loop through the list and add them individually.

Thanks . @Vijay Khacharia

Tried to add Users in Particular group to be added as watchers ,So that when ever user created or deleted in JIRA does not require changes @ script level .

you can get the users from a group with com.atlassian.jira.security.groups.GroupManager#getUserNamesInGroup(com.atlassian.crowd.embedded.api.Group)
