With this add-in it is easily possible to upload your attachments from your mails in the Jira issue.

The add-in supports four types of attachments:

  • file attachments

  • inline images

  • files from your local file system

  • the whole email as a file (.msg / .eml format)

Upload & delete attachments

If you create a new issue with attachments, all attachments referring to that issue, will automatically be uploaded. However, you can make adjustments to your attachments i.e. you can delete one or more if you do not need them.


Uploaded all attachments


Deleting one attachment

For deleting an attachment, you click on the relevant document and the blue hook disappears. This attachment will then not be uploaded in your Jira issue.

If you do not click on any attachment, all documents will automatically be uploaded.

Deleting an attachment looks like this. You click on the document you wish to delete and the blue hook disappears. This attachment will not be uploaded in your Jira issue.

Upload attachments by default

In your Jira for Outlook settings you can change the automatic upload of your attachments. For example, you you can set that all attachments are not automatically uploaded. Then, you then need to select every single attachment individually if required for the issue.

Drag & drop your attachments

Next to upload the attachments, it is possible to upload another attachments outside your email per drag & drop easily.

In this attachments area you can also choose the buttons, should all attachments from your actual email be marked for the upload or none of them.

Drag & drop in the sidebar

The add-in sidebar works although with the drag & drop function.

It is possible to add the email fail to an existing issue.

In the settings you can decide, should every email from the create issue be saved as an as a file (.msg / .eml format), or you can add multiple files and images with this drag & drop function as well.

All files & Images are saved in the issue, if you open the issue in the sidebar you can find your files/images behind the button files.

If you wanna change a wrong file, you have to open your issue in Jira and here you can make changes of wrong uploads.
