The Attachment Trigger is not firing for *before insert* and *after insert* events when attachments are added via the UI, is this a bug? I've reviewed the known issues site and couldn't find anything similar. However, I did find others having issues with this same Trigger in the past (some reporting that the issue was resolved?). Can anyone shed some light on this? Here is a quick example for before insert: Apex Trigger: trigger Attachment_Trigger on Attachment (before insert) { if(Trigger.isBefore) { if(Trigger.isInsert) { Attachment_BI_Add_Test.testChanges(Trigger.new); } } } Apex Class: public class Attachment_BI_Add_Test { public static void testChanges(Attachment[] newAttachments) { for(Attachment a : newAttachments) { a.name = 'test'; a.Description = 'test'; } } } Other resources found with similar issues: - [http://corycowgill.blogspot.com/2010/12/salesforce-winter-10-attachment-trigger.html][1] - [http://boards.developerforce.com/t5/Apex-Code-Development/Attachment-Trigger-Not-Firing/m-p/591659/highlight/false#M108460][2] - [http://boards.developerforce.com/t5/Apex-Code-Development/Trigger-after-insert-an-Attachment/m-p/70211#M4073][3] I've also checked the docs for operations that don't invoke triggers however, attachments are not mentioned: - [http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/index_Left.htm#StartTopic=Content/apex_triggers_ignoring_operations.htm][4] [1]: http://corycowgill.blogspot.com/2010/12/salesforce-winter-10-attachment-trigger.html [2]: http://boards.developerforce.com/t5/Apex-Code-Development/Attachment-Trigger-Not-Firing/m-%20%20p/591659/highlight/false#M108460 [3]: http://boards.developerforce.com/t5/Apex-Code-Development/Trigger-after-insert-an-Attachment/m-p/70211#M4073 [4]: http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/index_Left.htm#StartTopic=Content/apex_triggers_ignoring_operations.htm
