how do I disable file-attachments in Jira-Cloud?

Question

Hi, I hope someone already did so and can tell me how do I disable file-attachments in Jira-Cloud?

On Jira-admin I can only setup the maximum size of the attachments, thumbnails and ZIP functionality. The documentation does neither mention it.

Reason: We're using Team-files for Jira and I want to avoid redundancy and enforce using team-files.

Hi Bernd,

You can do that by editing the Permission Scheme attached to the Project.

Hi @Bernd P_

It is not possible to disable attachments in Cloud.

Please follow the guide here for the response from Atlassian Team

https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Jira-questions/Disable-attachments-globally-Jira-Cloud/qaq-p/1122354

The workaround is to remove the permission "Create attachments" in the permission scheme.

Thanks,
Pramodh
