      It should be possible to retrieve the total number and size of all attachments on an instance.

      Workaround

      You can get the total count (but not size) of attachments by doing the following:

      1. Navigate to "System" (by clicking the cog symbol) > "Backup Manager" > And click "Create backup for cloud"
      2. Download the file when complete. Unzip the folder and open the "entities.xml" file.
      3. In the "Database statistics" section you can see the Attachments count:

      Note: Thanks to Kian for this workaround.

            Is it also possible to add total count and size of attachments per Jira project (here your-instance/jira/settings/system/performance/metrics/projectcleanup or anywhere)?

            It would be useful to view which projects have the most attachments and which are the biggest by total attachments size, in order to do some cleanup (for example archive at first the biggest projects, in order to perhaps make backup faster).

            You can basically use

            /rest/api/2/search?fields=attachment

            Iterate through the issue list and count the number of all attachments for it, but you need iterate over all pages.
