#43883 closed enhancement (fixed)

Add a user's attachments to the personal data export file

Reported by: allendav's profile allendav Owned by: allendav's profile allendav

Description

Attachments (e.g. media) can contain personal data (e.g. images of the person, EXIF Geo location, etc)

We should at least include a public link to each attachment a user has uploaded.

For smaller attachments (e.g. < 3 MB), maybe include them in the export archive too.

I'll take care of this after #43546 lands

Further note: We're doing this because we can't programatically handle all the possible ways attachments might contain personal data, so we're basically just going to treat any attachment as potentially containing personal data.

@desrosj @xkon - I stopped short of adding the smaller attachments to the ZIP file at this time. What do you think?

To test: Upload some media as a user you plan to run an export request against. Run the export request against them. Make sure URLs for each media item appear in the report.
