How to show attachments in Issue Navigator

[Adolfo Casari]

Is there any way to show in a column in Issue Navigator the names of the attachments for an issue?

Thanks in advance,

Currently not possible - https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-4737

However you might be able to implement that using custom scripted field (Script Runner) which will display attachment names for an issue and you'll be able to add it as a column in the issue navigator.

Here's a sample groovy code for the field:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.config.properties.APKeys

def attachments = ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentManager().getAttachments(issue)
def baseUrl = ComponentAccessor.getApplicationProperties().getString(APKeys.JIRA_BASEURL)

attachments.collect {
    '<a href="' + baseUrl + '/secure/attachment/'+ it.id +'/'+
        URLEncoder.encode(it.filename, "UTF-8") +'">' + it.filename + '</a>'
}.join("<br>")

(Modified by @Jamie Echlin [Adaptavist] to support attachment filenames containing spaces Nov 2016).

Use script field config: Template: HTML.

Thanks for sharing the script.

Hi,

I want to display sum of two number fields to third number field.

ex: 1 Support Count CRM(2.0) = 510

      2 Support Count CRM(Old) = 10

      3 Support Count CRM(New) = 4

Calculate the sum of 2 custom fields (2+3) to the third custom field (1)

• 1= 2+3 
• 510 = 10+4
• 524

Hello Andrews,

Create a scripted field and insert this script  below, and add the scripted field to the view screen.

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.CustomFieldManager;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.fields.CustomField;
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.Issue;

CustomFieldManager customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.getCustomFieldManager();
def issueManager = ComponentAccessor.getIssueManager();

//your first field
CustomField custNum = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("numfield1");
def custNumValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(custNum);

//your second field
CustomField anotherCustNum = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("numfield2");
def anotherCustNumValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(anotherCustNum);

//your third field
CustomField anotherCustNum2 = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("numfield3");
def anotherCustNumValue2 = issue.getCustomFieldValue(anotherCustNum2);

if(custNumValue !=null && anotherCustNumValue != null && anotherCustNumValue2 != null) {
def finalValue = custNumValue+anotherCustNumValue+anotherCustNumValue2;
return finalValue;
}

Thanks!!

This is better, it gives you clickable file names (to download them) and also lists multiple attached file names:

import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.config.properties.APKeys

def attachments = ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentManager().getAttachments(issue)
def baseUrl = ComponentAccessor.getApplicationProperties().getString(APKeys.JIRA_BASEURL)

attachments.collect {
 '<a href="' + baseUrl + '/secure/attachment/'+ it.id +'/'+
 URLEncoder.encode(it.filename, "UTF-8") + '"' + '>' + it.filename + '</a>' + '<br>'
}.join('<br>')

Hi, @Johan Geens

I've got this error while trying this script:

Can you help me to figure it out?

Use this groovy code in Script Field it works!! But it need to create new custom field.

Hello,

I see null, Is that because of the file path?

C:\Users\home\Atlassian\Application Data\Jira\data\attachments

this my path for attachments. script seems to be good but see null when I preview.

Thanks in advance.
