With the added ability to search Jira attachments, you can use JQL to search and report on all content in one centralised place, from status updates through to attachments.
Jira issue attachments, can often be harder to track down, despite so often holding valuable information.
Extend JQL functionality to search for attachments by their content. Search Jira attachment text in Word & PDF documents. Search Excel spreadsheets attached to Jira tickets.

Use the following as a JQL Query:
attachmentExtension = pdf AND attachmentContent ~ “docker”
To search through your attached PDFs on any Jira issue.
"Great add-on. It's very simple, the new additions to JQL are available everywhere. We use it everyday to define queues.
Very good support as well. They respond almost instantly. They didn't try to sell their add-on, but suggested us how to solve the problem with what was already available in Jira." - Neha Choudhary
"Very good plugin, functions as advertised." - Simon Ammerman
