addWatcher method

Future addWatcher({
  1. required String issueIdOrKey,
  2. required String body,
})

Adds a user as a watcher of an issue by passing the account ID of the user. For example, "5b10ac8d82e05b22cc7d4ef5". If no user is specified the calling user is added.

This operation requires the Allow users to watch issues option to be ON. This option is set in General configuration for Jira. See Configuring Jira application options for details.

Permissions required:

  • Browse projects project permission for the project that the issue is in.
  • If issue-level security is configured, issue-level security permission to view the issue.
  • To add users other than themselves to the watchlist, Manage watcher list project permission for the project that the issue is in.
