We are trying to update document dynamically using custom fields in Policy Management project in Jira, we have used Big template for mapping the fields to document template and we could download document as PDF, also we could bring E-sign signature also in document using Big template.
However, we have to show table columns and rows dynamically in document template i.e, user will add N number rows in the table in Jira ticket and this table has to come in our document template. Is there any way to bring table dynamically in document template?
We have tried Table grid editor and drawing table in Description field, unfortunately it didn't worked while we move these table document template, we didn't see actual table in pdf after downloading.
So please suggest any alternative to achieve the above or any template similar to Big Template?
BigTemplate supports mapping static fields and repeating sections, but it can’t interpret arbitrary HTML or Markdown tables from Description or third‑party custom fields like Table Grid Editor. The export engine only renders data bound through its own placeholders or supported field types. That’s why your dynamic table disappears when generating the PDF — the renderer doesn’t parse embedded markup from Jira text fields.
To generate a truly dynamic table, you need a field type or app that exposes structured array data to the template.
