Hi 

It is possible that the issue is related to the size of the image. I recommend compressing the image and attaching it again.

Thank you

Hi Jerrold, 

Thanks for responding. 

Actually it was an outlook item while trying to attach that outlook email they are getting error like above.

In which format we need to attach that email ??. And also how much size will it accept for the outlook item in JIRA issue ??

Hi 

 

It is giving issue with the outlook item only.

Steps tried to attach :

1. While attaching the outlook email in .msg format or .eml format frequently iam getting error even though the size of that email is 138kb. 

 

2. I have tried to zip that outlook email and tried to upload it to the JIRA issue still getting the same error size of the zip format is 38kb.

 

3. .txt and .png extensions files while try to attach it is working for me without any error.

Hi 

To seamlessly integrate Outlook emails or items with Jira issues, you can utilize the free Atlassian plugin called "Jira Cloud for Outlook." Once added to your Outlook account, this plugin facilitates easy attachment of emails to issues at no cost. Developed by Atlassian itself, it requires installation in Outlook rather than Jira. After adding the app, configuration within your Outlook account is necessary. By accessing the apps section and selecting Jira, you will be prompted to review permissions and specify your instance in Outlook. Subsequently, when composing an email that needs to be associated with a Jira ticket, clicking on the three dots in the top corner will reveal an option to send it to specific issues. Upon selection of the relevant issues, the email will be automatically attached under the corresponding issue.

Hi 

Seems like you need to ask your office admin, like a system administrator to install the app. they may blocked the access to users to install. For me when downloaded I didn't face any issues but it asked admin permission I was able to give it. can you check with  your team. 

Thank you.

Nishal K February 23, 2024

Hi 

 

Yes, you are right due to some permission and restrictions provided by our company. We cant able to download/install the app. I will ask our System admin team to check on the issue. They are the right persons to sort our the issue. 

 

Thank you for your quick responses. 

 

Regards, 

 

Nishal
