Our support team works with Topdesk and our dev team works with Jira. We are setting up communication between both tools. We can already send text, but with the images it's going wrong. I receive a status 200, but in the return i have an empty body.

I only can use json(with freemarker) to build the code.

What is have is:

This returns:

When i look into the log's of jira, i see there communication, but i can't find the attachment.

Does anybody has an idee to fix this?

[Eric Smith]

Hey Jurgen. I understand your pain. One of our clients was also using TOPdesk and wanted to sync everything with Jira comments, attachments, various fields etc. and got stuck in the middle of the internal development process. 

We recommended this tool to them - ZigiOps and I believe it did a good job. 

Hope this helps.
