      Issue Summary

      When adding an attachment of a non-image file type (e.g., mp3, pdf, etc.) or an image without extension (e.g., .png, .jpeg, etc.) in a comment using Jira Service Management, the customer notification shows the following error:

      Unable to embed resource: filename.ext of type application/filetype
      

      Steps to Reproduce

      3. Review the customer notification and observe the error mentioned above.

      Expected Results

      The customer notification should not display any error message and should convert the inline attachment to a direct link to display the attachment based on the "Attachment security" settings in the "Customer notification" settings under "Project settings".

      Actual Results

      The customer notification displays the aforementioned error when a non-image file is attached to a comment.
