Abstract

This code snippet copies the attachments Attachments of all the first linked issue issues to the current issue. Since currently copying and setting of attachments is not supported until JMWE-504 is implemented, you can use this snippet to copy the attachments of an issue.

Logic

Fetch the attachments of the linked issues, linked to the current issue with a specific link type and use the AttachmentManager to set copy the attachments of to the issue.

Snippet

//DefineInitialize the attachmentManager
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.AttachmentManager
AttachmentManager attachmentManager = ComponentAccessor.getAttachmentManager()

//Define a variable to store the attachments variable

def attach = []
if(issue.getLinkedIssues("<Link type name>")){
//Fetch the attachments of the linked issue and store them in the attach variable

 attach = issue.getLinkedIssues("<Link type name>").first()each{
    attach += it.get("attachment")
  }
}
//Add each attachment to the issue
attach.each{
  attachmentManager.copyAttachment(it,currentUser,issue.key)
}
