Downloading Linked Attachments in Zendesk
How does Zendesk handle downloading linked attachments?
In Zendesk, linked attachments are included in email notifications. If 'Enable secure downloads' is turned on, only logged-in users can view these attachments. Otherwise, anyone with the link can access the file unless it's flagged as malware. Note that attachments are not indexed by search engines unless the link is published in a public article. For more information, refer to theZendesk help documentation.
