Is it possible to make attachment field mandatory ?

[Vishal]

I need to make attachment field mandatory in one of the issue type of a project only if they choose 'Yes' in response of another custom field.

Is it possible to achieve ? If yes, please help with it.

@Vishal , this is not possible out of the box. However, you can achieve this using an addon such as ScriptRunner.

Cheers.

A solution to achieving this with scriptrunner, was posted here:

I resolved it.
I changed workflow in project on issue creation step. I clicked on connection between "CREATE ISSUE" and "TO DO" (it's my first step in workflow) and added "VALIDATOR". 
Next step -Add validator
Choose -  Field required Validator -Add

Hi @Vishal 

This is not possible to achieve in Jira out of the box. 

You can make a field required based on input from another field using 3rd party applications.  

There have been several discussions already created here which might help:

Can be done with any number of addons. You should see what ones you have in your instance and which ones can provide a validator to do your check.

The basic idea is you want a validator that check if field 1 is set and if so, that there is at least one attachment.

What add-ons do you have to work with?
