Deleting Attachments via Automation using Regex

Hallo, 

we would like to delete attachment of mail signatures using regex:

^BrandEins.*\.(jpg|JPG|gif|GIF|png)$

This should detele files containing the texte BrandEins im Filename. 

If I test it with a REGEX editor, the example filename matches:

"BrandEins_BeraterUnternehmen2023_Logo_DE_basic_1ca9ce0c-96b4-4cff-ae1b-03f1224a87f6.png"

Despite of it, the automation does not work ...

 

I have made it as follows:

IF "ISSUE IS COMMENTED" THEN "DELETE ATTACHMENTS SELECTIVELY"

(See REGEX)

Is there still any mission point?

Would it be possible to make this manually executable?

Best regards

Istvan

Hi @Atlassianist 

welcome to the community. Could you post the log of the automation rule execution?

Not quite sure what the problem is, because your syntax looks correct.

You could also switch the trigger to manual. That would make the rule available in each issue, right next to the workflow drop down.

The other option would be to use a scheduled trigger and rule the rule on in a certain interval.
