Email Notification for Attachments Updates

Introduction

With Attachment Checker for Jira, it is possible to send notifications when an attachment is added or deleted.

This is useful

  • to decouple separate notification for issue updates vs attachment updates

  • when the issue update notification has been disabled

How to do it

The plugin can fire a configured event when attachment is updated. This event will send out email notification according to the project’s notification scheme.

This can be set up with 3 simple steps

  1. Create a new event

  2. Configure Attachment Checker for Jira to use the event

  3. Configure the notification scheme

Create a new Event

We recommend to add a new Attachment Updated Event that can be used in the notification scheme

  1. Go to Jira Administration > System > Events > Add New Event
