trigger .bat script / python script to upload data file using Jira

[thiru]

Would like to know thoughts.

in our company, field engineers needs to upload some status file into central server and then the ingestion pipeline starts once the new file placed for data ingestion.

we are using Jira for task management, is it possible to provide an control to field engineers to create new issue ( and workflow let say upload file from their local folder to remote server and start the ingestion pipeline).

Yes, you could create a local batch file that can poke an issue (with attachments) into Jira over the REST API.  You'll need something that can hit the REST endpoint with your data - I tend to use curl in scripts.
