Automation rule failure emails contain links to global automation pages only accessible to system admins, preventing other users from viewing relevant failure details.

      Summary

      When automation rules fail and send "notify on error" emails, the links provided in the email notification direct users to global automation pages that are only accessible to system administrators. Regular users and project administrators receive emails with links they cannot access, making it impossible for them to investigate or understand the automation failure.

      Current Behavior

      1. An automation rule configured globally fails during execution
      2. The system sends a "notify on error" email to the rule owner/stakeholders
      3. The email contains links that redirect to global automation administration pages
      4. Recipients who are not system administrators receive a "permission denied" or cannot access the linked pages
      5. Users cannot determine which specific project or context caused the automation failure

      Expected Behavior

      Users should receive actionable email notifications with links they can actually access, such as:

      • Option 1: Links to project-specific audit logs if the user has project administrator permissions
      • Option 2: Links that redirect to an accessible view showing relevant automation information
      • Option 3: Email content that includes sufficient context (project name, issue key, etc.) without requiring external links
      • Option 4: Different email templates based on recipient permissions

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Configure a global automation rule that affects multiple projects
      2. Set up "notify on error" for the automation rule
      3. Trigger a scenario where the automation rule fails
      4. Check the email notification received by a non-system administrator user
      5. Attempt to click the links provided in the email
      6. Observe that the links lead to inaccessible global automation pages
