I'm trying to build an automated process for invoice acceptance for my company. So when an e-mail with attached invoice arrives at a specific mailbox, a JIRA issue with attachment is created. However, when someone has to accept dozens of invoices, clicking every time to open pdf attachment preview is a bit mundane. So I'd like to have a pdf preview embedded in JIRA issue view. I know it's possible in comments, using HTML
{html}<embed src="./test.pdf" width="500" height="375" type='application/pdf' />{html},
but it's not automated and using HTML in comments is not the best way as far as I know. Using wiki markup !test.pdf|width=500,height=375! works fine with images, but with pdfs it returns an error Unable to embed resource: test.pdf of type application/pdf. And - again - it's not automated.
I suppose the best way would be to use custom plug-in with js script, but I would have to somehow filter all pdf attachments from the issue. And I never wrote anything in js.
Any help and suggestions appreciated. Thanks in advance!
you can do this with light scripting:
You must be a registered user to add a comment. If you've already registered, sign in. Otherwise, register and sign in.
