Text editing in automation

Alex Shirokov

Hi guys! 

I built a very simple automation rule --> Issue created --> pre-populate a Description field with a text (example: "Test Text" and "body of the text"). My client wants to see the "Test Text" as bold and "body of the text" is italics. 

I tried to include html tags but it does not work. 

Any suggestions what should be done? 

Thank you in advance

Hello @Alex Shirokov 

Please look at markdown syntax.

Also, you cannot apply styles to fields like Issue name/Issue summary. Only multi line text fields like Description / comments etc.
