      Using https://docs.atlassian.com/jira/REST/latest/#api/2/issue/{issueIdOrKey}/attachments-addAttachment.

      ...
Content-Disposition: form-data; name="file"; filename="xxxx"
Content-Type: application/octet-stream
Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary
...

      However, JIRA returns 

      "mimeType":"text/html"

      More specifically, it is impossible to add binary attachments that do not have a file extension since the mime type cannot be set.
