I am working on a NetSuite → Jira integration where I need to attach a PDF to a Jira issue. The problem is that in SuiteScript,

file.getContents()

it returns the file content as Base64. When I send that directly in the

multipart/form-data

body, Jira stores the attachment as-is (Base64 string) instead of recognising it as a valid PDF. Has anyone solved this before? Thanks in advance!

It all depends on the api endpoint you're trying to hit and what its expecting. There's also a dedicated content type for PDF data. What is the api expecting?

@Xmun Thanks, that makes sense. I’m hitting the Jira attachments REST API (

/rest/api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/attachments

). From NetSuite I only get the file in Base64 via

file.getContents()

. Do you know if Jira expects the raw binary stream there, or is Base64 with

Content-Transfer-Encoding: base64

acceptable?

I see a contentType in the request params so maybe you need to set that, but possibly also you may need to decode before sending.

thanks let me check
