BE: Image handling in Jira issues
Problem
This issue was created in response to this thread: #293019 (closed)MVC-1-Jira_issue__read-only.png_
- If a user adds an external image link in the Jira description, Jira directly shows that image. This also works for us:
- If a user uploads an image, Jira show the image but the attachment is a private URL, related to #243806. This is how looks in GitLab:
Proposal
Ideally, the UI would communicate to the user that an attachment on a private URL can only be viewed if the user authenticates with Jira or goes to Jira issue directly.
MVC-1
If too much effort is required for the first iteration to replace the broken image link with a placeholder image that communicates what to do in order to view the attachment, we could just not display the image and update the copy in the Alert component to mention that: "some images may not be displayed".
MVC-2
We replace the broken image link with a placeholder image that communicates what to do in order to view the attachment. (See Designs section for placeholder image options.)
