Batch edit on Links or Attachment

Hello, 

Is there a way to remove links or attachments from a large numbers of items. We performed a JIRA sync, and included the JIRA location of the items. However, now we want to remove them as it is not necessary. 

Batch edit does not allow that. Is there any other way than manually performing it?

    Hi Slawomir,

    why don't you try to write a REST API script for this.

    Get the affected items via advanced filter (GET /filters/{filterId}/results), then delete the attachments (DELETE /items/{id}/attachments/{attachmentId}) or links (DELETE /items/{id}/links/{linkId}).

    Best  regards,

    Thank you. This is a good idea, and I will look into it for the future.
