Hello! I’m new to writing Groovy and looking for assistance in writing some script in preventing attachments over 35MB from being able to sync bidirectionally from Salesforce to ADO/Jira. We receive a Bad Gateway Error that makes our Console completely inaccessible when a large attachment sync amongst one of our connections. Any guidance is appreciated.

Hi!

this is the way I filter outgoing attachments on the Salesforce side towards Jira, I hope it’s useful to you!

```auto
def remoteAttachments = entity.attachments.findAll { attachment ->
         replica.filename = attachment.filename
         String fileName= attachment.getFilename()
         replica.estensione = fileName
attachment
}
 
//The max size of the attachments in bytes. 1MB = 1.000.000 bytes
def maxFileSize = 300000000
def refacturedList = []
for(file in remoteAttachments){
    if(file.filesize <= maxFileSize){
        refacturedList.add(file)
    }
}
replica.attachments = refacturedList

```
