Table Transformer Macro - Export to PDF Includes Hidden Source Data

Katie McGoff_p7x791

I am placing a Jira Filter Macro within a Table Transformer Macro. I have set up the Table Transformer Macro Options for Source Data to "Hide all Content". This displays properly on the Confluence page. However, if I Export to PDF, the PDF will display a copy of the source table at the bottom of the PDF.

Hi @Katie McGoff,

Unfortunately, I couldn’t reproduce the issue (app version 9.7.1): I have the Jira Issues macro wrapped inside the Table Transformer macro with a simple SQL query “SELECT T1.'Key' FROM T1”.

If I choose to hide all content, I see only a one-column table coming from the Table Transformer macro in my result pdf file.

If I choose to show all content, I see two tables in my pdf file: a one-column table and a full table coming from the Jira Issues macro.

So, please check what version of the app is installed for your instance and update if necessary.

@Katerina Rudkovskaya _Stiltsoft_ looks like you tagged the wrong "Katie McGoff", there are two of us apparently!

@Katie McGoff this was for you.

Hi @Katerina Rudkovskaya _Stiltsoft_

I played around with this more and realized it's only an issue when I have a table inside another table. Something like this table inside of a Table transformer macro:

Will actually export to PDF (or Word) like this. where the table-within-the-table is duplicated underneath the table:

One might argue that putting tables within tables is in general a bad idea (ha), so I did work around this by just not putting tables inside other ones.

Hi @Katie McGoff ,

We see the issue now - indeed it is not a best practice to nest tables. For example, in Cloud editor you won't be able to do this at all.

But nevertheless we've created a ticket for our Server/DC roadmap and linked this question to it - we'll return to this thread when our developers make a corresponding improvement.

Thank you for reaching out!
