Why don't I receive an email when I assign or unassign an issue to myself?

Issue

I want to know why I don’t get a notification when I assign or unassign an issue to myself, and how to turn that on.
​

Applies To

  • All Sentry users
    ​

Resolution

By default, Sentry doesn’t email you about your own actions. If you want assignment emails for actions you take yourself, you need My Own Activity enabled.
​

Open your personal notification settings and turn on My Own Activity. Also make sure Issue Workflow is enabled for the project, since assignment notifications use workflow.
​

Once enabled, you’ll get notified about your own actions in Sentry, including assigning or unassigning yourself. See Personal Notification Settings.
