As a PM , I want to summarise my requirements in a table format so that it is easier for my stakeholders to understand and prioritise requirements at a holistic level.

Problem statement - My jira macro in confluence is not displaying description field - it is showing the column as blank with no text.

Refer to my 3 x screenshots -

  • 1st screenshot - my jira filters & display 
  • 2nd screenshot - what I am getting
  • 3rd screenshot - what I want to display 

Hopefully there is a quick win for this (ie less than 20mins fix) otherwise I am just going to give up & summarise my user stories in Microsoft word or excel - as it is more important for me to correctly & succinctly display requirements in an easy & digestible format to my stakeholders so that I manage scope - as MVP == only must have requirements.

Hi @iris_wong and welcome,

it seems to be a bug. I just tested on my instance and description appears just after clicking on description column. Please could you confirm that?

nope - description is still displaying blank (see screen grab below) - maybe my IT needs to update our jira instance? But we are on Jira Cloud, so I thought any updates/bug fixes would just automatically roll through?
