Smart value strings across multiple lines

[Joseph Daniels]

Hi all,

I have been trying to use this smart value: "issue.description.substringbefore" to remove the tabling of a signature as JIRA is unable to do it at the moment.

I have grabbed the "code" of what JIRA sees by sending "issue.description" to myself as an email and it has spewed out this code (This is a snippet, information removed for privacy):

*Insert email message body*

*signature below*

|
|
| name redacted **Insert bunch of code here, this is the email signature pieces**

*more lines of code*
|

I want to basically remove everything after the following:

|
|
| name redacted **Insert bunch of code here, this is the email signature pieces**

but I cannot figure out how to tell JIRA smart values to look for information over different lines. It works if I specify "| name redacted" but then it creates a blank table as it has left the two "|".

Does anyone know how to do this?
