Add Followers

Administrators and Project Managers cannot add a member as a follower of an entity (user stories, tasks, bugs, etc). However, it is possible to configure scripts for automatic subscription.

How it works: when a user is assigned to any entity (e.g. User Story, Feature, Bug, etc.), the script subscribes the user to the entity as a follower. Scripts are configured via Webhooks

Webhooks process entities that are created after the moment when a webhook is configured.

To activate the described solution please learn how to configure automatic rules in Targetprocess within webhooks. Then use the templates below as the settings for your profiles.

Subscribe owner (creator) user as a follower to an entity

👍

Please consider using the following Automation Rule instead of this webhook.

https://your-targetprocess-address/api/v1/GeneralFollowers?token=[your token]

Create User Story / Task / Bug / Feature / Epic

{
General:{Id:{{ID}}},
User:{Id:{{OwnerID}}}
}

Now when users create an entity (e.g. User Story, Feature, Bug, etc.), they are automatically subscribed as followers to this entity and nested ones.

Subscribe assigned user as a follower to an entity

Create and Update Assignment

{
General:{Id:{{AssignableID}}},
User:{Id:{{UserID}}}
}

Now when users are assigned to an entity (e.g. User Story, Feature, Bug, etc.), they are automatically subscribed as followers to this entity and nested ones.
