How to attach an attachment to a JIRA request

[Jeff_Liekens]

I'm trying to attach an attachment to my Jira service ticket. I've found 2 URLs which could do this.

1.  

{jiraUrl}/rest/servicedeskapi/servicedesk/{serviceDeskId}/attachTemporaryFile

2. 

{jiraUrl}/rest/api/attachment/3/issue/{issueId}/attachments

I've sent to both the same parameters:

- X-Atlassian-Token: no-check

- accept: application/json

- multipart/form-data (file with name file)

(- Basic authentication)

When I sent my first request I receive a 500 response without further details.

When I sent my second request I receive a 404 without further details.

Hi @Jeff_Liekens 

This is the official expected URL on using rest api to add attachments https://docs.atlassian.com/software/jira/docs/api/REST/8.1.0/#api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/attachment .

Please note the causes for Response 404 and ensure you have the necessary permissions.

Let us know how it goes.

Hi @Ismael Jimoh

I've modified the request to the above URL. It worked perfectly.
Thank you for the quick response!
