Description

The Copy or Move Attachments post function copies attachments from/to all related issues. You can define which issue should be a source and which is a destination. One or more attachments can be copied to the related issue(s). You can also use the post function to move attachments added on a transition screen.

See Workflow post functions to learn how to add a JSU post function to a Jira workflow.

Configuration

Precondition

Issue Relation

Perform As User

Perform As User is a configuration option in JSU post functions. It lets you choose the user who acts on the post function when it runs. When choosing a user account to run a post function, the specified user account must have the appropriate permissions to perform the actions, such as creating an issue or adding a comment.

Copy attachment from/to any related issue

You have different options for defining which issue/s will be treated as source/destination for attachments. Several of JSU's workflow modules provide the option to define the scope for some related issues.
For example, instead of copying attachments from one issue to the others, you might choose to copy them from all linked issues to the issue in transition (e.g. to group all attachments within one issue)

Conditional copying attachments

Conditional copying attachment (controlled by custom field) is always only checked for issues in transition, regardless of whether the issue in transition is a source or destination.
