Generating a secured link for external users to download attachments via Jira Automation

[Lloyd Patawaran]

Hello,

I setup an automation rule that generates an e-mail to an external recipient after a Jira issue is created via e-mailed request. I included the following syntax in my automation which captures all attachments from the original e-mail messages and creates hyper-links so that the external recipient can download the attachments.

{{#issue.attachment}}
<li><a href="{{content}}">{{filename}}</a></li>
{{/issue.attachment}}

The problem: The hyperlinks that are generated from the syntax above requires that a user already be logged into Jira. Not suitable for external users that do not have access to Jira. Is there anyway to generate a secured, login-less download link similar to the function in the article (referenced below):
