400 Response with webhook PUT to add attachments

Peter Gagne

I'm able to confirm (200 Response) with my credentials, however when I extend the request to perform an action, I'm getting a 400 Response.   I've read some links from earlier posts, but I'm still struggling to get this to work.  This wanna-be programmer would be greatly appreciate any help!!  :0) 

My web request looks like this:

Hi @Peter Gagne , 

Good to hear your credentials are working, that's a great start. 

You have chosen a pretty complicated request with adding attachments, so I will be adding some reading material and as you are a (wanna-be in your words ) programmer, I will try to guide but let you figure some things out on your own.

• You can find all public APIs for Jira documented in their Jira Cloud platform REST API overview, and lucky for you it has a posssibility for adding attachments here! 
  • Check the HTTP method
  • Check the format of the body you have to send
• You can't just pick an attachment from your disk on your PC and upload it in a rule for a few reasons: 
  • If you run the API from automation, how will the rule get access to you local C drive?
  • Read up on multipart/form-data in here to check how you should send attachments

Please let us know how it works!
