How to use monospace formatting with Jira Automation?

Tim Graffam

We would like to use monospace formatting in a Jira Automation Comment rule. Since the markup for monospace is double curly brackets - the same characters used for Smart Values - I havent figured out how to accomplish this.

Is this possible to accomplish?

Thanks!

Hey Tim,

John from Automation for Jira here.

It's a good question and the answer is yep you can definitely do this.

What you need to do is open the smart value with a backslash.

So, this would print out in monospace:

\{\{monospace\}\}

The accepted answer doesn't actually work in Automations... it just outputs "{{monospace text}}" as opposed to actually applying the monospace style to the text.

I wanted to use the monospace formatting in a description while using automations. If I try {{monospaced}} there is no output and if I try \{\{monospaced\}\} the output is {{monospaced}} with the brackets.

What shoud I do to use monospace formatting in descriptions?
