Attachment quantity limit control (Jira 6)

[Sinan Yesilyurt]

Hi,

How control issue add attachment piece (quantity) limit control. No size control, piece control.

Thank you

Hi Sinan,

There is no configuration for number of attachments. I wonder why do you need the limit?

[Sinan Yesilyurt]

Hi Volodymyr, Because I need is loaded every file a new job my workflow. Therefore, It seems a task but etc 5 file 5 task.

I'm curious about this too - I still can't see why you need to limit the attachments.

[Volodymyr Krupach]

So Nick's approach to check number of attachments during the transition looks like most elegant and easiest.

[Nic Brough -Adaptavist-]

There is no off-the-shelf function to do that, you'll need an add-on to interfere with the "attach file" process.

Or you could do a slightly more clunky thing and have a validator to say "you can't move this issue through the workflow until you reduce the number of attached files" - ugly for the user, but it'll force the point (and the code is a lot shorted than trying to hook into attachment processing)

I think it might also be worth explaining why you want to do this - there may be better options (and flaws - if you blocked me from adding 6 attachments, I can think of at least two ways around it that you would absolutely hate)

Hi, I need because; This project added a new task every file is expressed. I need therefore. I am search add-on but I could not find this plugin. So,as you say, no such thing . I'll try with validator. Thank you
