Hi all,

When we create ticket in ServiceNow and assigns it to Jira group it creates ticket in Jira with all the information except the attachment.

Can anyone help on how to send attachment to Jira from Servienow.

Thank you

Create MID Server Script Include


Name: CopyAttachments


Script:

Add to Main Script Library (under Jira)


addExistingAttachments: function(taskID, corrID) {

              while (attachment.next()) {


                      this._buildAttachmentRequest(attachment, taskID, corrID);


              }


      },




      _buildAttachmentRequest: function(att, taskID, corrID) {


              try {


                      var sa = new GlideSysAttachment();


                      var binData = sa.getBytes(att);


                      var encData = GlideStringUtil.base64Encode(binData);


                      var file_name = att.file_name.toString();


                      var contentType = att.content_type.toString();


                      this._sendAttachmentRequest(encData, file_name, contentType, corrID);


                      this.debug("Adding Attachment : " + file_name + " Content-Type: " + contentType);


              } catch (Exception) {


                      this.debug('Failed sending Attachment to due to Exception: ' + Exception);


              }




      },




      _sendAttachmentRequest: function(encData, file_name, contentType, corrID) {


              //Calls the MID Server Script Include


              this.debug("Calling MID Server Script Include");


              var jp = new JavascriptProbe(this.midServer);


              jp.setName("CopyAttachments");


              jp.setJavascript("var req = new CopyAttachments();");

Make sure you have MID Server selected

Hi Mike,


You require additional customizations to send attachment to Jira from Servicenow. You may need to post the attachment from servicenow incident to Jira ticket REST end point. See JIRA 6.4.12 REST API documentation


Regards,


Siri


Can you also provide CopyAttachments() Script include.


Hi Mike,



Are you able to send the attachments to JIRA?



We are also implementing SNOW-JIRA Integration and was stuck at sending multipart data from ServiceNow.


Can you please help us if you were able to send the attachments?



Thanks

Hi Mike,


Can you please post the ''CopyAttachments" Mid Server Script Include?




Thanks
