Enhancment request to allow linking to attachments from other tickets.

Title: Allow linking to attachments from other issues in comments

Description: There's currently no easy way to insert a direct link to an attachment on another Jira issue into a comment. The attachment UI uses JavaScript handlers rather than standard HTML links, so "Copy Link Address" isn't available in the browser context menu. A built-in mechanism (e.g., an autocomplete like !attachment:ISSUE-KEY/filename! or an "Insert attachment link" option in the comment editor) would eliminate the need for duplicate file uploads across related issues.

Currently the process is to go via the REST api:
https://siemens-sim.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/issue/[ticket-id]?fields=attachment
And there search for your attachement name and copy the link of the form 
https://siemens-sim.atlassian.net/rest/api/3/attachment/content/[id]
Which is at the end of the output for the specific attachment item.

Hi @Stefan Holst welcome to the community.  I found JRACLOUD-64906 on Atlassian's Jira Site which sounds like your issue.  

If that's your request, feel free to Vote For and Watch it for updates.

This is another possibility.  JRACLOUD-97705 

If those aren't your issues, you're free to search that site, as I may missed something.  If those aren't your issue, you're free to create a new work item there.  If you do that, I would suggest posting the number here so others can vote for it and watch it themselves.

Hope that helps.

Hello Stefan,

This seems like a good idea.

You can always view suggestions here https://jira.atlassian.com/secure/Dashboard.jspa?selectPageId=10440 to see if this idea has been suggested, if it has you can vote on it and watch it for updates.

You can also submit feedback through the Give feedback option within Atlassian products or open a ticket with Atlassian Support. Atlassian will review the request and when appropriate, create or link it to an existing feature suggestion.
