Restrict the view of the attachment

Qualcomm Support

Hi Team,

Can we restrict the view of the attachment similarly which we use during commenting an issue. Let me give you an example :

Suppose I am working with another developer on a particular issue and commented (with view of developer restricted) and attached a screenshot on that issue. So, the reporter / user will not able to view that comment however, he / she will be able to view the attachment since the user will get a notification for the attachment event as well as he view it from the web UI as well which is not required for user or he / she may not understand that what we wanted to achieve with that screenshot.

This is a feature Request type of request.

Thanks,

Please see the following answer this question.

The short answer is a feature request is still outstanding and the workaround is to create a subtask put the attachment in the subtask. The subtask would be restricted and so will the attachment.
