Watching an Activity Stream

You can "watch" an activity stream in FishEye/Crucible. Watching the activity stream allows you to receive emails when updates occur in the activity stream. You can view all of your watches and configure the frequency of your watch emails in your user profile. See Changing your User Profile for more information.

Note, the option to add a watch will only be available if the administrator has enabled watches for the repository.

  1. Navigate to the activity stream that you want to watch.
  2. Choose Tools > Watch. The page will reload and a watch will be set up for the activity stream (the watch icon will be coloured, not grey).
    • If you want to remove the watch, navigate to the activity stream and choose Tools > Watch. The watch will be removed (the watch icon will be coloured, not grey).
      (info) You can also remove watches via your user profile.
