To edit an attachment's properties, you need 'Create Attachments' permission which is assigned by a space administrator from the Space Administration screens. See Space Permissions or contact a space administrator for more information.

To edit the properties of an attachment:

  1. Go to the page that contains the attachment.

  2. Choose Tools > Attachments to go to the 'Attachments' view for the page.

  3. Click the Properties link beside the attachment. This will display a new screen.
  4. Make your changes:
    • File Name — Rename or modify the name of the attachment.
    • New Comment — Update the existing comment or enter a new comment.
    • New Content Type — Change the content type of the attachment by entering a valid MIME type.
    • Page — Move the attachment to another page.
  5. Click OK.
