Each user (with and without administrator permissions) can change the default global settings of Email Notifications Digest plug-in to be applied to his account only.

To configure personal settings click on user profile icon in JIRA and select Digest Email from menu:

   

The system will navigate you to Email Notifications Digest - Personal Configuration page:

   


Personal Configuration Settings

Enable Digest Email

Each user can decide is he/she wants to get a notification digest when any changes were made in JIRA.

No digest will be sent if there are no updates.

If notification digest is enabled for a user but no hours are selected in a week to receive digest, the issue changes will not be collected and no digest will be sent to user's email address.

Include my changes in Digest

In case when notifications are switched off in JIRA, user can enable or disable getting notifications about his/her changes in JND.

Include these issue events in digest

User can configure which issue events he/she should be notified about (included in a digest). E.g., user does not want to get notifications in a digest when someone logs work or edits a comment etc.

Each user can specify which events in Jira issue to be recorded in a digest, By default, all check boxed are enabled (user gets all notifications):

  • Issue Created
  • Issue Assigned
  • Issue Updated
  • Issue Moved
  • Issue Status Changed
  • Issue Commented 
  • Issue Comment Edited 
  • Issue Comment Deleted 
  • Work Logged On Issue
  • Worklog Modifications
  • Issue Estimate Changed
  • Issue Deleted
Someone assigned an issue to me

In case when user wants to get the notifications only when the issue is assigned to him/her, he/she should check 'Someone assigned an issue to me' checkbox.

Someone mentioned me in a comment

When checked, user who is not a project lead and not a watcher of an issue, and gets tagged in a comment by someone, should get a notification.


For Maximum number of updates in Digest and Email Digest Schedule settings see Global Digest Configuration v1.0/2.0

Personal Configuration settings override global digest settings for a specific user they are specified.

The only exception is Enable Digest Email setting: if an admin switches off digest emails, users will not be able to switch it on in their personal configuration settings.
