Can I link to an attached image in a Jira issue?

Linda Granqvist

Hello!
Our issues in Jira often have a lot of images and other documents attached. 

The test cases are written in another app. This app unfortunately does not support attachments, other than as links to other apps., so I planned to link to all the images in the Jira issues instead. 

But I cannot seem to copy a working image link from the Jira issue. Every try results in a 'not found' error when clicking the links in the test case app. 

What am I missing?

Not sure if this fits your situation, but I'm currently trying to provide a link to attached images in Jira -- and apparently it's necessary to include the "blob" pseudoprotocol before the secure http protocol indicator, e.g. 

 

blob:https://yourdomain.and.whatever/you_get_when_you_copy_the_image_link

Jira is a prohibited environment, in a sense what you can't simply share issues, comments, images with the outside world. You can use:

<your_jira_base_ur>/secure/attachment/<attachment_id>/<attachment_file_name>

Hope that helps!
