Create smart values for a table upon creation of a work type.

Question

Goal: I would like a table to populate when a work type is created in the Description field along with a Info banner. The table will have COLUMN HEADERS not row headers.

Current Automation:

Problem: This automation keeps producing the the table but with them as ROWS not as columns. I know this is elementary by using the pipes but that's the extent of my technical skills haha I had no idea how to add the info banner in blue btw.... Any advice would be helpful :)

Awesome; I am glad to learn that helped!

Sadly, that "blue banner" you show above is likely an "Info panel" macro, and the macros cannot be added with plain text edits in rule actions.

You could try a more advanced edit using Atlassian Document Format (ADF), and that will require updating the field using the Send Web Request action and the REST API endpoints.

Omg thank you, it worked! Do you by any chance know how to get that blue banner with the automation?

Hi @Mireya Cintora

Please try using two pipe characters around the column headings as described here:
