How do you make it so your ticket description has bold text when it's created by Jira automation

Question

Creating Jira tickets with Jira automation, I tried using *word* to bold words in the description field, but when the ticket gets created by the automation, the description in the real ticket doesn't contain any bold *word*s.

Can you share a screenshot of your automation so I can see what you are doing.  The *Word* is the correct way to bold an issue in an automation.
