Code block set in description with ``` not working

Question

Hi,

I am creating jira's using an automation script

Sending a piece of code in the description filed within ``` so that it will be displayed as a code block

Manually this is working perfectly fine, the moment ``` is typed, a code block is shown

Not sure if  I am missing anything, any suggestion to get it working

This is how description filed is set now

description = description + '```'

description = 'code block........'

description = description + '```'
