In ServiceNow Zurich version,  ServiceNow ticket, we can add people to the watchlist so they get notified by email for any update on the service ticket. The issue we are having is people on watchlist can't reply to tickets - what is out of the box ServiceNow? can we update so they can reply? Appreciate your assistance.

Hello @DP1970 

 

Who can reply OOB

The Caller

Users with appropriate roles (itil)

Users who have read/write access to the record via ACLs

In some configurations, the “Requested For” user

 

Try adding following acl to  Watch List users:

 

1) Have read access to the table "sc_req_item"

2) create or edit a Write ACL on sc_req_item for the comments field.
