JIRA Automation to delete Excel attachments

Question

I have a use case where a user needs to remove Excel attachments from a list of issues. I have found the automation to remove all attachments, but looking for an option only to remove a specific file.  I believe it will be using a regular expression, but I need help determining how to set it.

Hi @Brian Taylor

If you look in the details of the Delete Attachments action, it will point you to a reference for creating a regular expression.  I recommend looking there to confirm you have what you need.

For example, a very basic one to remove just the *.xlsx files would be this:

(.+\.xlsx)

Kind regards,
