JIRA - Email an Issue
In this chapter, we will learn how to email an issue in JIRA. A user can email an issue to other JIRA users. There are two ways to do it −
- By share an issue and
- By mention these users in issue’s Description or Comment field.
Let us now discuss each of these in detail.

You can write the JIRA users’ name by typing their usernames or partially/all of their full names as registered with JIRA or type the email addresses of the individuals with whom you would like to share the issues.
