Use case

Within the Send email post function you have the possibility to send HTML links in the message as well.

In the following use case we show an approach to send an email to the project lead linking the most recent attachment. 

This use case is normally applied after executing a transition, if an attachment was added there. This will then be linked to.



Configuration


Add the Send email post function to the desired workflow transition or create a new transition.


From

Choose the option User in field with the value "Current user" (this is the default value).


To

Select Field containing users and select the field Project lead.


Email content


Subject

Select the parser mode General and enter plain text and optionally use field codes and JWT expression parser functions. 


Email format

Choose HTML 


Body

Select the parser mode General and enter the following expression:

<p>
Hi %{issue.project.leadDisplayName},
</p>

<p>
Please have a look at the attachment which was provided during the transition: <a href='%{system.baseUrl}/secure/attachment/%{jiraExpression("issue.changelogs.map(i=>i.items).flatten().filter(i=>i.field==\"Attachment\" && i.to != null)[0]?.to")}/%{jiraExpression("issue.changelogs.map(i=>i.items).flatten().filter(i=>i.field==\"Attachment\" && i.toString != null)[0]?.toString")}'>%{jiraExpression("issue.changelogs.map(i=>i.items).flatten().filter(i=>i.field==\"Attachment\" && i.toString != null)[0]?.toString || \"\"")}</a>
</p>

<p>
Cheers
</p>


If no attachmant is available for this issue, no link will be created.
