Add Members of Groups as Watchers with Autowatch for JIRA

TL:DR Autowatch for JIRA allows you to automatically watch issues matching custom JQL queries. The JIRA Server version now support’s adding all members of a JIRA groups as watchers to an issue.

Autowatch for JIRA allows you to automatically add watchers on issue creation or update that match custom JQL queries. But sometimes you have 10+ users who you want on multiple rules. Setting up that many users can be tedious, so we’ve added Group support to the plugin. Now in the user selection dropdown, you can select both users and groups to add as watchers to an issue.

Groups are now selectable in the dropdown

You can now add group’s as watchers in JIRA Server, with JIRA Cloud support coming soon. You can get the new version of Autowatch for JIRA here.
