Add image in Jira with a plugin VM file

Question

Hello everyone, So I'm trying to add a local image, in src/main/resources/images/piechart.png to my vm file. In my atlassian-plugin.xml, I've added it as a resource. security-service and in my VM File I added this: $webResourceManager.requireResourcesForContext("security-service")

I have read the documentation on how to add an external resource and did the same in here but the image still cannot be read by the browser. I get error 404 when I check the console and when I check the URL of the image I get this https://companyname.com/jira/download/resources/com.companyname.jira.plugin.security-service:security-service-resources-${timestamp}/images/piechart.png

Hi Youssef Bouchara and welcome,

For this kind of questions exists a separate forum where developers can catch up together.
Have you tried at https://community.developer.atlassian.com/ already?

Regarding your questions is mostly answered already here:
https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Answers-Developer-Questions/Referencing-images-from-decorator-or-css-in-theme-plugin/qaq-p/479052

Probably if you dont want to use CSS but the direct link in your decorator instead, you may disable batched mode first as explained at:
https://developer.atlassian.com/server/jira/platform/web-resource/

Did my answer solve your problem?
