Cannot add attachment in a comment an issue via API version-3

[mohanraj_kandhasamy]

Hi and thank you for taking the time to read my question!

V3 endpoint:

rest/api/3/issue/{issueKeyID}/comment

V3 request body:

{
"body":{
"type":"doc",
"version":1,
"content":[
{
"type":"paragraph",
"content":[
{
"type":"text",
"text":"Paragraph Text"
}
]
},
{
"type":"mediaSingle",
"attrs":{
"layout":"align-start"
},
"content":[
{
"type":"media",
"attrs":{
"id":"9458e39e-ed47-4598-9a42-81a039283wda",
"type":"file",
"collection":"",
"width":595,
"height":595
}
}
]
}
]
}
}

Making a POST request to the above endpoint results in this,

{"errorMessages":[],"errors":{"comment":"Comment body is not valid!"}}

Hi,

I am also facing the same problem. Is there a solution fr this?

In order to add the attachment in the comment, I need to supply the attachment's UUID in the mediaGroup, but that UUID is not available in any API output.

I tried with the attachment ID, but then I get an error saying that attachment validation failed.

Hi @mohanraj_kandhasamy did you try to use something simple on the beginning? I can see quite nice example in the docs: https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/platform/rest/v3/api-group-issue-comments/#api-rest-api-3-issue-issueidorkey-comment-post

To be honest, I think you can't post attachments as part of the comment. You need to post attachment to Jira first and create link to it in the comment...

Check if the endpoint is working with simple body and we can work on it after that...

Hello @Martin Bayer _MoroSystems_ s_r_o__ 
is it possible now to post a comment with attachment ?
