Jira automation Send Email - Table created as a default value of custom field not showing

Kayle Saunar

Hi,

Is there a way for me to display in the email the table that is set as part of the default value of a custom field?

Currently, it is displayed like this in the email sent:

||Date/Time||Tasks||Owner||
| | |
| | |
| | |

I assumed it will look like this in the email. I used smart value to pull the custom field's content.

Thanks!

Hi, @Kayle Saunar 

You have to change value format. It's can be done by adding .htmlEncode after field name in smart value. In your case it will look like:

{{issue.description.htmlEncode}}
