Attachment Data per Project Jira On-Server

Question

Hi there,

Please could someone assist me; I am looking to acquire data regarding how many attachments we have per project in addition to the total data size of those attachments?

If someone could show or tell me a really easy way to do this even if it means getting a free trial of an App that would be really appreciated!

First time posting so hopefully get this resolved!

Yes, with a bit of work on calculations.  The files you'll find in the directory tree are the physical copies of the attachments you see in the UI.

Would this provide number of attachments/size of those combined attachments do you know? Thank you for getting in touch.

You need (read) access to the file system on the disk on the server.

When you have that, log in and

cd /<jira home>/attachments

You'll find a directory structure that is at least organised by project, but you may need to do some work to interpret it, probably by cross-referencing it with the attachments table in the database.
