I want to send a specific attachment using Scriptrunner

Jimmy Karlsson

In my workflow there can be several attachments added over time. My problem is that I want to send a specific attachment with Custom email in a post function later in the workflow.

My plan to sort this out:

I have a custom field (single line text field) with a value that is always the same as the specific attachment added earlier in my Workflow. (fixed via Automation)

Now I want to send a custom email, and by using Custom Attachment Callback my plan is to fetch the custom field value, to then only send that specific attachment.

Can someone help me with how a script like this would look? OR maybe if you have an alternative solution that is better?

Hi @Jimmy Karlsson

I have a doubt to clarify, does the single-line text field also have the file type included along with the file name?

Thank you and Kind regards,

Ram

Hey!

Yes it does

Hi @Jimmy Karlsson

Below is a sample working code for your requirement:-

import com.atlassian.core.util.FileUtils
import com.atlassian.jira.component.ComponentAccessor
import com.atlassian.jira.issue.MutableIssue
import com.atlassian.jira.mail.Email
import javax.mail.internet.MimeBodyPart
import javax.mail.internet.MimeMultipart

def customFieldManager = ComponentAccessor.customFieldManager
def attachmentManager = ComponentAccessor.attachmentManager
def issue = issue as MutableIssue

def fileName = customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectsByName('File Name').first()
def fileNameValue = issue.getCustomFieldValue(fileName) as String

def selectedAttachment = attachmentManager.getAttachments(issue).find {
    it.filename == fileNameValue
}
//set your project key
def projectKey = 'MOCK'
//set the path in your Jira instance where the attachments are stored
def attachmentPath = '/media/ram/Linux_Disk_Space/atlassian/application-data/jira8/data/attachments'
//set the recipient's email
def recipientEmail = 'user@email.com'
//set the path where you want the field to be copied to
def targetPath = '/tmp'
//set the email subject
def subject = 'Test mail'
//set the email content
def emailBody = 'Sample Email'

def sourceFile = new File("${attachmentPath}/${projectKey}/10000/${issue.key}/${selectedAttachment.id}")
def targetFile = new File("${targetPath}/${selectedAttachment.filename}")

FileUtils.copyFile(sourceFile, targetFile)
creatMessage(recipientEmail, subject, emailBody, "${targetFile.canonicalPath}")
targetFile.delete()

static creatMessage(String to, String subject, String content, String filename) {
    def mailServerManager = ComponentAccessor.mailServerManager
    def mailServer = mailServerManager.defaultSMTPMailServer
def multipart = new MimeMultipart()
    def body = new MimeBodyPart()
    def mailAttachment = new MimeBodyPart()
    def attachmentFile = new File(filename)

    body.setContent(content, 'text/html; charset=utf-8')
    mailAttachment.attachFile(attachmentFile)
    multipart.addBodyPart(body)
    multipart.addBodyPart(mailAttachment)

    def email = new Email(to)
    email.setSubject(subject)
    email.setMultipart(multipart)
    email.setMimeType('text/html')

    def threadClassLoader = Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader
    Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader = mailServer.class.classLoader
    mailServer.send(email)
    Thread.currentThread().contextClassLoader = threadClassLoader
}

Please note the sample code provided is not 100% exact to your environment. Hence, you will need to make the required modifications.

Below is a screenshot of the Post-Function configuration I have tested with:-

Below are a few test screens for your reference:-

1. In this test case, an issue is created, and two sample attachments have been included, as shown in the screenshot below:-

The first attachment added is the AC_Repair.txt and the second attachment added is the psql_test.txt.

2. Although psql_test.txt was last to be added, it is the AC_Repair.txt attachment that is added to the email attachment as its value is set in the text field, i.e. File Name.

Once the issue transitions, the email is sent. Below is the email result with the attachment:-

I hope this helps to answer your question.

Thank you and Kind regards,

Ram
