GitHub Release: cli/cli v2.99.0 (01.09.2026)

$ git clone https://github.com/cli/cli.git Clone

Attach images and videos to issues and pull requests

The repeatable --attach flag uploads local images and videos and adds them to issue, pull request, or comment bodies. If a body already references the local path, gh replaces it with the uploaded URL; otherwise it appends the attachment:

# Attach files when creating or editing an issue

gh issue create --attach './repro.png#The error state'

gh issue edit 123 --attach ./walkthrough.mp4



# Attach files when creating or editing a pull request

gh pr create --attach ./before.png

gh pr edit 456 --attach ./after.png



# Attach files to comments

gh issue comment 123 --attach ./repro.png

gh pr comment 456 --attach ./result.mp4

Repeat the flag to attach multiple files in a single invocation. Attachments are available on GitHub.com and GitHub Enterprise Cloud.
