=== Watches are not updated when file based scripts change
|
|
|
|
When you refer to a file script in a watch, the watch itself is not updated
|
|
if you change the script on the filesystem.
|
|
|
|
Currently, the only way to reload a file script in a watch is to delete
|
|
the watch and recreate it.

=== Security integration
|
|
|
|
When the {security-features} are enabled, a watch stores information about what
|
|
the user who stored the watch is allowed to execute **at that time**. This means,
|
|
if those permissions change over time, the watch will still be able to execute
|
|
with the permissions that existed when the watch was created.
