We are preparing a migration of our Jira instance.

We want to check tohe total volume of attachment and we want to look for "abnormaly" big files attached.

Where can we see attachments and ther size please ?

 

Most of posts on this issue are using SQL. I don't have acces to the database. I must use Confluence application only.

Marc

PS: I have the same question for Confluence so I will post the same question on confluence.

@Anurag Jalanand @Kerem Caglar _Solveka_ are right.  To establish the size of your attachments, you need to run a basic Operating System level function to calculate it.  (Unix-like systems are easy - a "du" command at <jira home>/attachments will give you an exact number and can be refined for more detail).

There's no way to do it in the UI.

I don't think there is a way to directly see this info from the UI level. You need to access thisinfo from App Server Level. Perhaps, your system admin can help to get you this info.

See <jira_home>/data/attachments folder.

All of the attachments are stored under that folder ina structured manner like <PKEY>/<PID>/<ISSUE-KEY>

Thank you Kerem but I don't have acces to the system nor the database.

I must use the interface only.
