Description

I'm trying to create a new JIRA issue with a required field of attachment. No matter how I format it I've been unable to get this to work. The attachment is a required field to create the ticket according to the Get-JiraIssueCreateMetadata output but not when creating a JIRA ticket through the web page. When creating a JIRA ticket manually in the web application "Attachment" will have a red star next to it like any other required field but if you don't add anything it doesn't throw an error and the ticket is created.

There isn't any issue with adding an attachment after the ticket has been created with Add-JiraIssueAttachment but as the attachment is a required field for the tickets I'm trying to create I was hoping to be able to add them as I create the ticket.

The output from Get-JiraIssueCreateMetadata:

Id              : attachment
Name            : Attachment
Schema          : @{type=array; items=attachment; system=attachment}
HasDefaultValue : False
Required        : True
Operations      : 

Here are a few of the things I've tried and the errors that haunt my working hours.

$parameters = @{
    Project = "TIKT"
    IssueType = "Ticket"
    Summary = "This is a ticket that was created with the JIRA PowerShell API"
    Description = "Ticket created with JiraPS"
    Reporter = "MyName"

    Fields = @{
        Assignee = "TheirName"
        Attachment = @{ attachment = @( "Path\to\file.txt" )}
        Attachment = @( "Path\to\file.txt" )
        Attachment = "Path\to\file.txt"

    }
}

I didn't try them all at the same time but it was easier to put them in here together.

error: 
Invoke-JiraMethod : 
attachment                                
----------

If I intentionally misspell the field attachment, for error testing purposes, then I get:
New-JiraIssue : Unable to identify field [Attment] from -Fields hashtable. Use Get-JiraField for more information.

If I run New-JiraIssue without the "attachment" field I get the following error:

New-JiraIssue : Jira's metadata for project [TIKT] and issue type [Ticket] specifies that a field is required that 
was not provided (name=[Attachment], id=[attachment]). Use Get-JiraIssueCreateMetadata for more information.

Then I attempted to run it with the "Attachment filed empty such as:
Attachment = ""
and
Attachment = @()
I still get the "Field does not support update 'attachment'" error

I'm able to create tickets using the python JIRA https://pypi.org/project/jira/ by not including the attachment field. If I do include the attachment field I get the same error:
Field does not support update 'attachment'

If there is a way to bypass the "Attachment" fields check that would be good too.

Perhaps I'm just missing something simple.
Please help
