A workaround is using Jeditor template + prepopulation. Get table's html code and put into a JEditor template. Like the template with any Richtext custom field via Jeditor prepopulation.

On jira ticket creation screen, the table will be displayed in the  custom field automatically.

@Hailin Zhang Can you provide an example of how you would do that using Jeditor template?

Hi @sbhutada ,

If you have JEditor plugin installed, you can go to add-ons>Jeditor configuration>Templates to create a new template. HTML codes are accepted.

Then go to JEditor configuration>Prepopulation to add a new Prepopulation Scheme for certain project/issuetype/field like below

Go to the target jira project file configuration to use JEditor renderer for the field configured in the prepopulation.

After above steps, you can have a table prepopulated on jira creation screen.

You can self define HTML code to what you want. Not sure whether the code supports JSP as I haven't try it.

Regards

Hailin

There is no "table" custom field in Jira.  You will need to use one of the add-ons that can provide it - see https://marketplace.atlassian.com/search?product=jira&query=table for them

Hi @Ron Jacob

there is now default custom field in Jira for tables, but there should be some apps for it in the Atlassian Marketplace. 

I have no experience with them, so unfortunately I cannot recommend you one. Sorry.

Best,

Nic
