Watching a topic does not work in Confluence Questions trial

[Dennis Payk]

We are currently evaluating Atlassian Questions. There is a feature to watch selected topics. If we click on "watch" it does not take any effect. Once reloading the page, the topic is still not watched by the user. Adding a user to the list of watchers on the right side also does not take any effect.

Is this a known limitation of the trial?

(We tested this on different accounts and devices.)

You seem to be talking about browser-side events like what might exist in a javascript layer.

And Jira/Atlassian doesn't really offer a good way to tie into those.

But you posted your question in the Adaptavist group with the adaptavist-server tag, so would it be safe to assume you have Scriptrunner at your disposal?

If so, what you are describing can be achieved with the "behaviours" functionality of scriptrunner wich you can find more details about here: https://docs.adaptavist.com/sr4js/latest/features/behaviours

Peter,

Yes, I am trying to get a handle on ScriptRunner and the Jira Object Model.

I am looking at Behaviors now.  Also looking at listeners to see where they fit in.

Thanks for your help.
