* If [issue-level security](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/J4lKLg) is configured, issue-level security permission to view the issue.
* To remove users other than themselves from the watchlist, *Manage watcher list* [project permission](https://confluence.atlassian.com/x/yodKLg) for the project that the issue is in.
