  • 1.  Attach file by API using HTTP Request activity

    Posted Mon April 11, 2022 04:15 AM
    Hello,

    I need some help by attach a file in Jira system using "HTTP Request".
    I need to know which are mandatory "Headers" and "Content Headers" which I  need to use when I try to attach a different type of files using this activity.
    And if it is possible to show me their properties for attaching .txt file to test the example.
    When I try to run activity with parameters I have set the "Reason Phrase" returns: Unsupported Media Type --->error 415


    Thanks for your time :)

    Check out the code in the library here:

    Hopefully, this will show you how to do it.

    Hello Nigel,

    It is a good example to understand how "HTTP Request" works and the way to set needed headers
    but I think that it won't help my problem.
    I ask for help by Jira support and when I have some working update I will share

    Thanks for your time :)
