Attachment Manager for Jira

Create attachment labels

Create labels (tags) for the categories your team looks for, such as Documentation, Approved or Screenshot. A label belongs to your whole Jira: once it exists, everyone can use it in any project.

Create while labelling

  1. Open Apps → Attachment Manager.

  2. Select + in a file's Label column.

  3. Type the new name in Search or create labels.

  4. Select Create followed by the name you typed.

  5. Pick a colour.

  6. Select Apply. The label is created and added to the file.

The Attachments panel on a work item works the same way, except that the last button is Create label.

Create a label in settings

Jira administrators can prepare labels before anyone starts labelling.

  1. Open Apps → Attachment Manager and select Manage labels.

  2. Select Create label.

  3. Enter a Name and choose a Colour.

  4. Select Create.

The Create label dialog with a Name field, a preview of the label and a row of colour swatches.
Create label lets you choose a unique name and a colour.

Label names are unique, ignoring capital letters: “Approved” and “approved” are the same label.
