  This feature request is closed as completed. In the thread, a maintainer announced on 2026-07-14 that the Atlassian Rovo MCP v2 preview includes two additional tools: uploadAttachmentToJiraIssue and downloadJiraIssueAttachment. On 2026-09-20, the maintainer said Atlassian MCP v2 is now available and linked to the Atlassian Remote MCP Server docs.

  To attach a file, you need to use the v2 MCP server and call uploadAttachmentToJiraIssue; downloadJiraIssueAttachment retrieves existing attachments. The thread does not include any config or CLI flags for v2, so check the linked docs for your client.

  The original atlassian-mcp-server thread itself does not contain a code-level fix, and no one in the thread reported actually trying the v2 tools yet. One commenter mentioned a third-party MCP skill that calls the Atlassian REST attachment endpoint as a workaround, but said it is not production-ready because it needs stronger safeguards around credential handling, strict host validation to avoid mistyped or unintended Atlassian URLs, and safer upload/update flows.

  General advice: if you evaluate any external attachment helper, verify which hosts it targets and how it stores credentials before connecting it to real Jira data.

  What @sdiakovskyi-gd tried on GitHub (Outcome unclear)

  A commenter mentioned a third-party MCP skill/workaround that attaches files to Jira via the REST API, but said it is not production-ready because it still needs stronger credential handling, strict host validation, and safer upload/update flows.
