  • The task is restarted

  • The task is deleted

  • The task is restored

  • The task is commented

  • The task has a new due date

  • The task has a new responsible

A user becomes a default watcher if :

  • He comments on the task

  • He delegates the task

  • A task is assigned to it

The user can add and remove himself as a watcher of the tasks to which he has access via a workspace. He can also remove the people he added as watcher. However, it is impossible to remove a watcher added by another user.

To add a watcher, click on the field and select another user.
