Overview

The Easy Email Attachments for Service Desk app by BDQ is a drop-in replacement for notification emails when comments are added or edited in Atlassian's Jira Service Management for Server or Data Center.

The emails sent by the app include the attachments added to those comments as email attachments, rather than links to the Jira Service Management portal.

Our two aims for the app are to ensure that:

  • It should be as easy as possible to install and configure (less than 5 minutes)
  • Agents should not have to change how they work with Jira Service Management to include attachments emails – no app-specific training, no fiddly additional UI or dialogs, just add attachments to comments as normal.

Simple and easy.
