How to turn the last uploaded image into a cover

Question

Hi everyone! I have seen some similar questions along the last year, but I haven't seen that has change anything. So I try to ask again to Atlassian Team ;-)

Is there any way to make the last image uploaded become the new cover?

I didn't find an automation to do it.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @Alicia Filíu Birlanga

I think this can be done via the API but I haven't done it yet.  The bits are all there to do so:

* You can use the "when an item is attached to a card" automation trigger
* You can do a HTTP get to get the attachment array:

* You can lookup the attachment name (or date) from the array and then get the attachment ID
* You can then set the attachment ID as the cover:

I am on the move a bit at the moment so never sure when I'll have strong internet but when I get a moment I'll have a play and get back to you...
