Global Digest Configuration v1.0/2.0

JIRA administrator can configure the global settings of Email Notifications Digest for all users in the system.

Global configuration allows to turn on/off the digest for all users, define the maximum amount of updates per digest and default email digest schedule.

Global Email Notification Digest Configuration is available from JIRA Administration → Add-ons → Manage Add-ons → Email Notification Digest add-on → Configure button.

Alternatively, global configuration can be opened from a personal configuration page (if user has JIRA Administrator permissions).

          

Global Configuration settings include:

  • Enable Email Notifications Digest plug-in for:
    • All
      • Notification digest will be sent to all users in the system at specified date/time

                            

    • Users in specific group
      • Notification digest will be sent to the users that belong to specific JIRA group only
    • Nobody

      •   Notification digest will not be sent to any user 

        If an admin switches off digest emails, users will not be able to switch it on in their personal configuration settings:

         

  • Default Jira email notifications settings (v2.2 and above)
    • Email Digest add-on can manage default Jira email issue notifications per Jira project. By default, both Jira default email notifications and digest emails are enabled.
