How to embed images into SpiraTeam artifact descriptions

When you need to embed an image inside the description of a requirement, test case, task, etc. you need to follow the process outlined in this article. With the release of SpiraTeam 4.0 you can then have these images appear in the PDF, HTML and MS-Word 2003 format reports.

This article is now obsolete.
It is not required anymore to first upload the images and then specify the URL to display it in the description of the artifact (and then report) - all description fields are now rich text and screenshot images can be copied directly from the clipboard - the file will be automatically added to the description of any artifact.

1) First go to the Attachments tab of the artifact in question:

2) Now click on the option to Add New attachment. Choose the Screenshot option:

Paste in the appropriate screenshot

3) The attachments list will now include this screenshot as an attachment. Click on this link and copy down the URL from the browser. (e.g. https://mysite.spiraservice.net/1/Attachment.438.aspx)
