How do I include work item photos and attachments in a report?

Photos and other files attached to work items, equipment, issues, or notes are included from a General report section. Turn on the parent item type and then turn on Images and Attachments for that type. JPEG and PNG files print in the PDF. Other file types appear as links. The report builder compresses images that were added as Files so the PDF stays a workable size.

  1. Open the project, then Reports.
  2. Open an existing report or start a new one.
  3. Add a General section (or edit the section you already have).
  4. In the Include options, turn on the parent type that holds the files — usually Work or Equipment.
  5. Turn on Images and Attachments for that type.
  6. Filter to the work category or equipment you need so the PDF stays focused.
  7. Click Export. Leave email-when-complete on. Large photo reports take a few minutes. The file is emailed and also saved on the project's Files page.

To also download the original files next to the PDF, turn on zip / offline export for the report. Extract the zip and keep the folder structure so the links in the PDF still work.
