Notification not triggered to createdby person for an 'issue'

A notification should be triggered to 'created by' person when a record is updated in 'Issue' table. for other fields like control owner or closed by, it works . But it doesn't trigger mail to created by  person. i doubt this happens since the createdby field displays a string value of username only and not a mail. how to fix this ?

@Ravivarman Saee If my solution helped you in any way please accept the solution so that it will be beneficial to the future readers with the same query

Found the issue - in this notification send to event creator is unticked. Hence it will not trigger the mail to opened by person if he is the one who updates the record ( condition to trigger the notification is when record updated). 

Thanks anyway.

Hi @Ravivarman Saee ,

 

Sorry i missed this point "More to that though opened by field is reference field i am unable to use it "

 

even though its a reference field you can use it in notification by selecting Opened_by in "Users/Groups in fields" as shown below,
