You can watch all objects in a workspace to which you have access, regardless of your rights and license.

Which events generate a notification?

  • Modification of an attribute of the watched object
  • Creation, modification or deletion of a synonym of the watched object
  • Creation or deletion of a link of the watched object
  • Creation of a child of the watched object
  • Creation, modification or deletion of a comment on the watched object
  • Creation, modification or deletion of a task on the watched object
  • Move of the watched object

How to watch an object

  1. Open an object card, or its preview.
  1. Click the eye icon in the top right corner of the header. The eye appears in blue when you watch the object.
  1. Click the eye again to stop watching the object. The eye appears in white when you do not watch it.

How to find your watched objects

You can filter on watched objects to find them easily from each module and from the search.

  1. Click the More filters button in the filter bar.
  1. Choose watched in the drop-down list.
  1. Select Yes. Only the objects you watch remain in the list.
You can also use the quick filter on watched objects directly from the home page. If the filter does not appear on your screen, ask an administrator of the client space to add it from the search settings of the client space.
